According to a message from Alan Cox, all the sound > drivers that come with the kernel are considered OSS drivers.
OSS is used for all the drivers in 2.1.106 but the new turtle beach drivers. This isnt handled nicely by the makefiles I've sent to Linus so far. 2.1.106ac1 has the 3 drivers by Thomas Sailer (AudioPCI 1370 1371 and S3 Sonic Vibes) added and the makefiles tided, as well as the ability to build these PCI card drivers non modular.
Its likely most new drivers won't use the OSS core for non MIDI stuff. Its not really the most efficient approach for newer cards
The other thing about the non OSS stuff btw is that as people adopt the new top level soundcore interface you should end up able to mix OSS commercial OSS, ALSA and other sound modules on your system at the same time
