Do you really need to disable them at all? Just to make sure this is not
a misunderstanding: These modules not part of OSS. They are ALSA modules
which provide a legacy API so that applications which need the old OSS
interface can still access the sound hardware when ALSA is used. (see
for example "/sbin/modinfo snd_pcm_oss") This could also explain why the
modules are loaded regardless of being blacklisted. (I don't know enough
about the inner workings of ALSA and modprobe to be sure, though.)
