Yes; I spent a lot of time on this yesterday, and that's exactly the
conclusion I came to as well, with one addition: oss-compat should allow
cwlib to work, but it doesn't because of bug # 659024 (which essentially
renders oss-compat useless). oss-compat does allow unixcw to work in
Arch (since Arch doesn't have bug 659024, said bug appearing to be a
simple omission in packaging, although the bug has been around for quite
a while now even though it seems like it would be easy to fix).
You're right, of course, that the real fix would either be to have
unixcw support alsa, (or for Canonical to continue to supply a kernel
with OSS support -- see the lengthy complaints about bug #579300).
