I did a bit of digging. In Fedora, it appears they have a patch to add ALSA support to tvtime, it seems like it enables one to use the ALSA mixer interface instead of the OSS interface (discussion at bottom): https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=498167

Note that tvtime's use of OSS doesn't fall into the categori of hogging the soundcard, it's merely using the mixer interface to control volume.
