Wow, indeed, that fixes sound for me on PillarsOfEternity and HollowKnight! And
there is no hang. I have removed all of the alsa ports now. Curiously that is
not enough to not have the game pick up Alsa. I still need to preload the empty
shared object. 

Also OpenAL also needs to be forced to OSS (for linux-unigine-*), it doesn't
automatically take OSS although Alsa is no longer available.

I didn't know that Unity3d/FMOD had fallback to OSS, but if that's the case I
think we should just try to make everything use OSS and not care too much about
Alsa or Pulse or a combination thereof. Seems unnecessary complexity (never
understood the many abstraction layers on Linux).

Thanks for working on this!
