I am now back to that machine --- indeed:

CONFIG_SND=y
CONFIG_SND_TIMER=y
CONFIG_SND_PCM=y
CONFIG_SND_RAWMIDI=m
CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER=y
CONFIG_SND_OSSEMUL=y
CONFIG_SND_MIXER_OSS=y
CONFIG_SND_PCM_OSS=y
CONFIG_SND_PCM_OSS_PLUGINS=y
CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER_OSS=y
CONFIG_SND_SUPPORT_OLD_API=y
CONFIG_SND_VERBOSE_PROCFS=y
CONFIG_SND_VIRMIDI=m
CONFIG_SND_POWERMAC=y
CONFIG_SND_POWERMAC_AUTO_DRC=y
CONFIG_SND_AOA=y
CONFIG_SND_AOA_FABRIC_LAYOUT=y
CONFIG_SND_AOA_TAS=y
CONFIG_SND_AOA_SOUNDBUS=y
CONFIG_SND_AOA_SOUNDBUS_I2S=y


And it doesn't hang on shutdown.

I probably never touched /etc/conf.d/alsasound manually,
so it still has:

UNLOAD_ON_STOP="yes"
