How to handle OSS applications with no sound on RHEL6?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • I can't find '/dev/dsp' sound device in RHEL6, and one of my applications has no sound output while playing it.
  • Is there any way that an OSS (Open Sound System) developed application to work on RHEL6 as it worked on RHEL5?
