[SOLVED] USB Headphones Aren't Working

Hello, fellas.

I have USB headphones. When I first plugged them in, they didn't work, of course.
I tried to do what's written in the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ad … ound_cards
But when I type in "modprobe snd-usb-audio", I get the following error:

modprobe: ERROR: ctx=0x1f4a010 path=/lib/modules/3.10.5-1-ARCH/kernel/sound/core/snd-hwdep.ko.gz error=No such file or directory
modprobe: ERROR: ctx=0x1f4a010 path=/lib/modules/3.10.5-1-ARCH/kernel/sound/core/snd-hwdep.ko.gz error=No such file or directory
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'snd_usb_audio': Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

"lspci | grep -i audio" output:

00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 05)
01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GF108 High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1)

What do I need to do to fix it?
Thanks!

Re: [SOLVED] USB Headphones Aren't Working

first, could be useful if you attached the dmesg log

second, I have that module, not in /lib/... but in /usr/lib/...

[mattia@arch-dekstop ~]$ sudo find / | grep "snd-hwdep"
/usr/lib/modules/3.10.3-1-ARCH/kernel/sound/core/snd-hwdep.ko.gz

is your system up-to-date?

I'm not proud of it, but I went on the W*ndows solution.
I probably messed my system up, so I reinstalled it and then I succeeded activating the module.
Cheers.
