Some other program is probably using the OSS device. Try the following command to see which program:

$ fuser /dev/dsp

Is it a process that you have started yourself?

You can also pass -a- to fbff to disable audio.

I have the same problem.

"fbff: /dev/dsp busy?"

Since this is almost 2 years old, I am not even sure if this "/dev/dsp" is suppose to exist on my modern up to date Archlinux

uname -a

Linux gigabyty 6.6.1-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed, 08 Nov 2023 16:05:38 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

fuser /dev/dsp

Specified filename /dev/dsp does not exist.

You need enable OSS emulation for alsa. This may help:

modprobe snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss
