It's a pity.

Hm, then I suspect rather it's a problem in the aoa driver side.

To make sure, check /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/sub0/hw_params has no
"OSS" entry when you're playing via aoss.  If a line like "OSS Format"
appears there, it is still kernel oss-emulation.

After you confirm it's a native ALSA in the driver execution, compare
the parameters there between the working status (using ALSA API) and
non-working status (OSS API).
