I'd start from a lsmod. you might still have the oss module loaded. If that's 
the case, try a rmmod and yast again. Or afaik alsa has an "alsa-config" (or 
something similar) which would do the same thing (ish) as yast. anyway, imho, 
you still have the oss module lingering in the memory somewhere...
