I am using a fresh install of Arch Linux and I can't seem to get the sound working.
I've tried installing alsa-utils and unmuting the Master sound, but that didn't work. I don't even hear the beep from the sound card in the terminal.
Help getting the sound to work would be appreciated
Thanks!

Please describe what's going on between your soundcard and the speakers. If it's HDMI sound, you might need X to convince it to play sound.

I have my headphones connected to the headphones jack.

Before we dive too deep into console commands, try alsamixer (the ncurse interface), press F6 and select the correct output.

Pressing F6 shows me two devices: HDA Intel PCH, HDA Nvidia.
The HDA Intel PCH in alsa mixer has various items and Master is all the way up to 100. So is headphones.
The Nvidia device, however, has only four items: S/PDIF, S/PDIF 1, S/PDIF 2 and S/PDIF 3. They show up as MM's in the mixer.
EDIT: Auto mute is disabled.

YES! I FIXED IT!
I created a ~/.asoundrc file:
pcm.!default {
type hw
card PCH
}
ctl.!default {
type hw
card PCH
}
But then only one application could play sound at a time.
So I installed pulseaudio and pulseaudio-alsa and now all sounds work! Thanks guys.
