4 osspd \- OSS Proxy Daemon
7 \fBosspd\fR [\fIoptions\fR]
10 \fBosspd\fR implements the OSS devices (/dev/[a]dsp and /dev/mixer) in userland using CUSE.
11 Sound data is forwarded to a DSP slave: Implementaions for PulseAudio and ASLA exist, but the ALSA
12 slave should still be considered experimental.
