[Solved] Acer Aspire V no audio

I have an audio problem with an Aspire V: Linux arch 4.5.4-1 x86_64, KDE Plasma 5.6.4, KDE Frameworks 5.22.0.

Audio device:
Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT HD Audio Controller (rev 09)
Intel Corporation 8 Series HD Audio Controller (rev 04)

aplay -l

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: HDMI [HDA Intel HDMI], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: HDMI [HDA Intel HDMI], device 7: HDMI 1 [HDMI 1]
  Subdevices: 1/1

card 1: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC282 Analog [ALC282 Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

I have installed alsa-lib, alsa-utils 1.1.1-1 and kmix 16.04.1-1
I create /etc/asound.conf :

defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.pcm.device 0
defaults.ctl.card 1

From kMix audio settings/device  preferences/audio/music, selecting default and Test: no sound.
From Amarok sound settings/Phonon:

HDA Intel PCH ALC282 Analog (Default Device)
HDA Intel PCH (ALC282 Analog)
Default
HDA Intel HDMI, HDMI 0 (HDMI Audio Output)
HDA Intel HDMI, HDMI 1 (HDMI Audio Output)
HDA Intel HDMI, HDMI 2 (HDMI Audio Output)

Test: only sound from HDA Intel PCH and Default.

No system sound, Amarok can't play no trace.
How can I fix the problem? Thanks in advance.

Re: [Solved] Acer Aspire V no audio

I have installed Pulseaudio:

$ pacman -S pulseaudio pulseaudio-alsa

i have also installed GStreamer plugins (for Amarok  .mp3 files)

gst-libav - Libav-based plugin containing many decoders and encoders
gst-plugins-base - Essential exemplary set of elements.
gst-plugins-good - Good-quality plugins under LGPL license.

$ pacman -S gst-libav gst-plugins-good

... it seems to work.
