SOLVED: Xonar DG modules: confused!

I used an emu10k1 for years and alsa always worked without any issues. Just put arch back on this box with a Xonar DG. The card is detected by alsaconf, but alsamixer shows only analog input controls and will only run as root. Otherwise I get:

cannot open mixer: No such file or directory

user is in the audio group.

I'm using the snd_oxygen driver

 lsmod | grep snd
snd_oxygen             13054  0 
snd_oxygen_lib         25545  1 snd_oxygen
snd_pcm                60015  1 snd_oxygen_lib
snd_timer              15374  1 snd_pcm
snd_page_alloc          5837  1 snd_pcm
snd_mpu401_uart         4943  1 snd_oxygen_lib
snd_rawmidi            15196  1 snd_mpu401_uart
snd_seq_device          4252  1 snd_rawmidi
snd                    43561  7 snd_oxygen,snd_oxygen_lib,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device
soundcore               4986  1 snd
lspci | grep audio
04:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: C-Media Electronics Inc CMI8788 [Oxygen HD Audio]

I ran into the alsa project wiki, but I'm missing way too much information to figure out what to do. Can anyone fill in the gaps? Is it still necessary to compile my own kernel module to get this card to work?

Re: SOLVED: Xonar DG modules: confused!

Turned out i wasn't a member of the audio group after all. I thought I had added myself so I wasn't thinking about this. Eventually it became obvious. added the user again, logout/login -> SOUNDS!
