Hi,
The only practical idea I can offer is that someone in the Alsa camp should take up the task of developing a set of instructions for configuring Mozilla. et. all, in such away as to make OSS not be used. I think Alsa should support, but not depend on, OSS at all. Today it depends on OSS by not providing clear info on how to use Alsa inside of browsers.
This is probably useful but the main problem I see is you are using a few apps that could be running alsa native but you are using the oss drivers instead.
mplayer will use whatever driver you specify in the config file. I assume xine is the same. Thats pretty much the best fix AFAICT. Then you only have to find a way to make sure you're java plugins don't make noise and stop using xmms until they fix the alsa driver.
Anything that xmms can stream mplayer can do too. Anything that doesn't require streaming alsaplayer can do.
Have you had major problems with java plugins? In this case you should look into ways to get around that. (Some people have been known to invest in a second $10 card just for browsing).

Apparently upon the beginning of the barrage, the donkey broke discipline and panicked, toppling the cart. At that point, the rockets disconnected from the timer, leaving them strewn around the street. Tethered to the now toppled cart, the donkey was unable to escape before the arrival of U.S. troops.
