Yes, they all use the sound stuff which depends on arts.
Turning encoded audio into raw samples is independent from the api of the
backend (OSS/ALSA/MAS/arts....). The decoding step should also handle things
like resampling to the sample rate of the backend, to the number of channels
of the backend, etc. And after this is done, the decoded raw data should be
playable by any backend (otherwise I'd consider the api of the backend
broken).
