Did you do a recent upgrade? If yes, it could be that you need to add the following to you modules line in /etc/rc.conf. Read your /var/log/pacman.log
MODULES=(snd_seq_oss snd_pcm_oss snd_mixer_oss)
Thank you for the response. I tried that from what I read in another thread, but it didn't work. So now I have re-installed arch once again... Think it's the third time now Hope I don't screw up
