In theory all what is needed on top of the alsa driver is the OSS compat driver that already exist in the kernel, but in reality the OSS compat does not work on arm platforms on top of Alsa (at least for omap) and would be unneeded extra layer anyway. So my opinion is that it is better to alsa directly. (That's what I did for the gomunicator rtones) Mika
