[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 921896] [NEW] Sound does not play in koules due to removal of OSS API

[Martin Jackson]

Public bug reported:

The OSS API was removed from the Ubuntu kernel.

Koules was written a long time ago, and still depends on the presence of
/dev/dsp.  It works perfectly well with the padsp wrapper, e.g. "padsp
koules".  However, the start menu in Unity at least does not start the
program this way.
