Hi Nate,

I'm pretty sure that's fixable. Once upon a time I initted
Manjaro-OpenRC with the runit init system, and in doing so found myself
with an OSS-only audio system. No problem, after a little tweaking, I
could watch and listen to Youtube videos.

Here's my documentation about that setup:

I have a feeling that if you can get it to work with OSS, you can get
it to work with ALSA also. Probably some mute or wrong device or
something.
