Friggin linux audio 

Yes, I should start swearing instead of saying "friggin"  Debian updated my sound stack.  Removed linux-base-audio.  This caused my perfectly good OSS4 stack to stop working.  No sound.  Sigh.  Re-install ALSA.  Sound returns, but it is too soft.  alsamixer gives error:

$ alsamixer
ALSA lib ctl_oss.c:404:(_snd_ctl_oss_open) Cannot get mixer info for device /dev/mixer
cannot open mixer: No such device or address

Giorgos to the rescue:
