[Bug 3808] Default sound driver should be Alsa, not OSS

The Windows mixer API is missing from winealsa. Someone needs to write code
which implements the Windows mixer API and makes the proper translations to the
ALSA API. I believe this is true for all audio drivers except OSS which already
has this implemented.  One way to do this is to port the existing OSS
implementation to ALSA.  This is how the existing ALSA driver and all the other
audio drivers started out.  Unfortunately it causes a lot of code duplication
and causes generic bug fixes in one driver to not make it into all the other
drivers.  There was a discussion in the past of refactoring the audio drivers to
a common Windows driver API frontend with hardware specific backends but this is
a lot of work.
