This is basically an error in the alsa headers - it seems they expect a define that is not in the time.h header even though it is not...

However the following got it to compile: Add the following line:
#define _POSIX_C_SOURCE 0
just before
#include "snd_alsa.h"

It might not fix ALSA - the sound sounds awful (much like sending random bits between the samples) but it compiles and OSS works fine.
