There is an Alsa-sound-mini-HOWTO that says:

"4.5 Backwards compatibility

If you want to preserve OSS/Free or OSS/Linux compatibility, you need to
insert one more driver: the snd-pcm1-oss driver for OSS-compatibility.
Issue a

modprobe snd-pcm1-oss

This will give you /dev/audio and /dev/dsp-support, just as the OSS/Free
(kernel) drivers and OSS/Linux (the $25 ones) do. Note that this is only
an emulation."
