I wanted to try out oss because sound on alsa is not great. I am on elementaryOS Loki which is built on ubuntu.
Anyways I installed alsa-oss using sudo apt-get install alsa-oss but it didn't recognize my sound card(its Realtek ac290). So I uninstalled it and now I dont have any sound. I have tried reinstalling alsa using
sudo aptitude --purge reinstall linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils linux-image-`uname -r` linux-ubuntu-modules-`uname -r` libasound2
but this doesnt fix anything, still no sound.
When I type alsamixer in terminal I get
:cannot open mixer: No such file or directory
Please help!

sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-extra-$(uname -r)
This command reinstalled all the missing drivers and fixed the problem.
I will just leave it here so that it can help others in future.
