It affects both, but ALSA API does the setup of stream parameters once,
but OSS API does this multiple times because there is no way to distict
the configuration phase and the working phase, thus we must reconfigure
after settings of all parameters.
If you strace aplay then you'll see that one ALSA ioctl has exactly same
0.5 sec peek.
