Audio Stopped Working After Recent Update

I did pacman -Syu and sound stopped working.

When I play a Youtube video, in pavucontrol and gnome settings for the sound the bars show audio is playing.  They are moving with the video.

It is as if my speakers are just unplugged.  I dual boot into Windows and sound is working properly in Windows.
