If you're using an Intel Haswell processor, there's an audio interface
built into the chip. It can be deactivated in the computer's setup (bios
or uefi). That might help. I had to do that on one computer to get the usb
audio interface to be the first sound card. Setting it to first in the
alsa config file (in /etc/modprobe.d, I think) wasn't enough.

I've got mumble working here on Refracta (Devuan Jessie) without
pulseaudio. My solution for pulse is either don't install it, or remove it
if it comes installed. I've never been able to figure it out.

OSS shows up in the mumble configuration, even though I don't have it
instlaled. I installed mumble a few months ago, so I don't remember any
details, but I do remember it was pretty easy.
