Steve and everyone else affected by tv tuners using the deprecated OSS API,
please be aware that there are two unofficial resolutions in place:
1) Use pulseaudio's module-loopback.
2) If you use tvtime, there's a pulseaudio backend written by a community
member.
Keep in mind as well that this removal is necessary to clear out the audio
jungle. Yes, some people will always be hurt by the eliminated backward
compatibility, but the long tail cannot be allowed to prevent consolidation
(and, err, progress).
