[SOLVED] Sound not working

Hi,

I have installed Arch on my Thinkpad W641.
I have advanced to a working system with xorg-server and i3-wm

Unfortunately my sound is not working.

I have found out how to  unmute(mute-Led went off),
but still no sound and

speaker-test

speaker-test 1.1.7

Playback device is default
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 1 channels
Using 16 octaves of pink noise
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1099:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
Playback open error: -2,No such file or directory

Right now I don't know how to setup sound correctly.
Would be nice get some help / uidance here ?

thank you
Frank
