Hardware mixing is, of course, the best solution, but note also that
OpenAL can be built with any of a zillion "back ends", among them the
various sounds servers (esd, arts) which do their own mixing.

In fact they *all* get included and an option in ~/.openalrc can define which one to use:

; Contains user settings for OpenAL
; Goes in ~/.openalrc

; Which backend?  Tried in order of appearance
(define devices '(native alsa sdl esd arts null))

; Four speaker surround with ALSA
(define speaker-num 4)
(define alsa-out-device "surround40:0,0")

; Some drivers do not support select
(define native-use-select ;t)
