[MPlayer-dev-eng] audio output driver priority

[Diego Biurrun]

Hi,

I've been looking over Christian Marillat's packages again and noticed
that he sets alsa as the preferred audio output driver.  This made me
think that it may be time to revisit the audio output driver priority.

Given that OSS is slowly going the way of the Dodo and that most people
probably use the OSS emulation of ALSA if they do use the oss audio
output driver, shouldn't ALSA be preferred over OSS?  IIRC the ao_alsa
is slightly faster than ao_oss and on systems that lack ALSA, we would
fall back on ao_oss or not even have ao_alsa compiled in..

Thoughts?  Comments?
