[armyops] Correct full working Openal

[Dana Olson]

ALSA's emu10k support is based on the OSS drivers.

If you tweak ALSA just right, you can get it to sound pretty much the
same. I've had no problems with games or anything yet, since switching.

But if you're happy with OSS for now, then stick to it. The point is
that you don't need arts or esd or anything like that if you have a
Sound Blaster Live card.
