Does Nouveau have to be loaded as base kernel can not use open nv or NVidia prop driver ?
WHY
Have amd64bit system, with Nvidia gt220 card with hdmi output of video & [other distros] sound via hdmi.
As of 2 weeks ago got 64bit base and icewm working. Gigabyte system board has on-board sound as Intel-HDA .
On other distros had to blacklist on-board AND get the nvidia.com prop bin driver into the kernel and X.
Can Nouveau kernel driver do hdmi sound ; or gen kernel without nouveau - blacklist at startup
{Since open nv video driver or nvidia prop-bin driver can be installed with Nouveau running }
did a search on forum for subject before posting.

Just install nvidia with pacman, and then reboot. Nouveau will be blacklisted automatically.
nv is old and deprecated, don't use it.

Months ago swap out NV card for ATI/AMD video card [hdmi-audio works on Open_Driver]
The stable_Nouveau wiki matrix informs: that maybe some NV cards may some day, do
HDMI-AUDIO when someone writes for the card, as of Sep 28,2012 NOT_FIXED.
