" Drivers do not have sound, and do not affect the sound."
There are many possible ways that drivers can affect the sound, from the subtle to the gross. Drivers are part of the software that is active while music is playing, in this regard they are no different than player software, or certain parts of the operating system involved with scheduling, context switching, memory management and file I/O, etc...
The nice thing about Linux is that if you don't like a driver you can write your own. (That is, if you can find sufficient hardware documentation, which may be proprietary or are a sufficiently clever experimenter.)
