Adjusting a quote from a wise man named "Rich Felker" in another email a 
few minutes earlier by replacing "OSS" with "ALSA":

PLEASE stop confusing ALSA (the API) with the Linux implementation. 
These are two separate things entirely. What you're doing is equivalent 
to complaining that X sucks because XFree86 or X.org is a bad 
implementation.
