I'm surprized that OSS is enabled on a stock PiOS.
You may have a the file

/etc/modprobe.d/oss-compat.conf

present, or a similar name.
Move that file to /etc/modprobe.d/oss-compat.conf.off
and reboot.

Thank you I will try that and inform.

As a background, I'm using an updated version of syncterm to BBS and it
only seems to detect OSS as an audio output option. I'd like very much
to remove OSS if possible.

What version of "stock raspberry PI OS" contains that installed?

The only one I found that I run headless and only recently started
streaming music with mplayer and online radio sources. My syncterm
install shows oss as the driver installed - that's all I know.

Can you not

sudo apt purge oss-*

I tried that.
