.SH NAME
osspd \- OSS Proxy Daemon

.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBosspd\fR [\fIoptions\fR]

.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBosspd\fR implements the OSS devices (/dev/[a]dsp and /dev/mixer) in userland using CUSE.
Sound data is forwarded to a DSP slave: Implementations for PulseAudio and ASLA exist, but the ALSA
slave should still be considered experimental.
