alsa-project/alsa-utils issue #56 was opened from yurivict:

I don't have any ALSA devices, only OSS devices.

When the OSS PCM is selected ```aplay``` still tries to read ALSA devices:
```
$ /usr/bin/aplay -D oss -l
aplay: device_list:272: no soundcards found...
```

```
$ /usr/bin/aplay -L
null
    Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
oss
    Open Sound System
```
