Bingo -- The box makes noise once again! And... as a bonus, learning has 
occurred as to how oss handles alsa kernel modules. I don't know what wanted 
oss, but oss does a good job wiping out alsa. But, the oss removal script that 
restores alsa works as it is supposed to. Alsa restored, module loaded and 
sound is back to normal (although with a cool mixer in kde 4.3.4)

Thanks again DR. Next time, just send me back the following link:
