[Pkg-oss4-maintainers] Bug#630642: Bug#630642: oss4-base: Does not include upstream utilities soundon/soundoff

[Romain Beauxis]

Hi Michal!

To be honnest with you, I am not exactly sure why this was removed..

I do not remember exactly how the package started but I think that I
took over a previous' work that included a init script that was meant
to replace soundon/off.

Are soundon/off essential for you? Do they provide something that the
init script does not?
