No sound on Eee Box EB1501P

Hi, I just installed Arch on my new-ish Eee Box and I can't get the sound working. I've unmuted all the channels and maxed their volumes. I can hear quiet static from my headphones when I increase the volume and some popping when muting and unmuting them, so at least it recognises the sound card (an integrated "Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)"). It also has an nVidia HDMI sound output. I have no idea what's going on, so I'll attach a few lines of info which might help below.
