Log:
  audio/alsa-plugins: partially revert r380063
  
  Restore BUFSZ_P2=on by default as a temporarily fix for excessive CPU usage
  in Firefox. r378529 wasn't enough to make BUFSZ_P2=off transition smooth.

+
+  ALSA backend in libcubeb as used by Firefox has an unresolved issue
+  with the OSS patch in audio/alsa-plugins. To avoid excessive CPU
+  usage when playing HTML5 videos rebuild the port with BUFSZ_P2
+  option enabled or reset options to default.
+
+  However, with BUFSZ_P2 enabled alsa-utils may crash:
+
+    $ aplay test.wav
+    Playing WAVE 'test.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Stereo
+    Assertion failed: (err >= 0), function set_params, file aplay.c, line 1289.
+    Aborted by signal Abort trap...
