That's not really how it works right now. Configure basically just checks if
any of ALSA, OSSv4 or CoreAudio is present. I.e., it checks for all of them and
then we use what's present.

In terms of likely packages it's CoreAudio for OS X, Alsa for Linux, and OSS
for BSD, but people use OSS on Linux as well, and a potential future PulseAudio
driver would complicate the Linux case further.
