Granted that this is hopefully a rare enough scenario, but what will

PulseAudio-aware applications that will fail over miserably if PA is
not running? They probably should fall back to ALSA but we probably
need a test plan in place.
If you want to put work into that, go ahead. Otherwise, there is a
reason why it is named compat-BROKEN-oss-sound.
Really few people will ever need this package because padsp emulation
works in most cases.
