[fixed] Little problems with sound (alsa, xmms)

I have some problems with XMMS. When I try to play mp3 It says in error that:

Please check that:
Your sound card is configured
You have the correct output plugin selected
No other program is blocking soundcard

So my pluginn is alsa output plugin
My soud card in alsa mixer looks OK

And I done everything like here:

Configure the audio card

Your audio card should already be working but you can't hear anything because it is muted by default. Install the alsa-utils
pacman -S alsa-utils

and use alsamixer to adjust the channels. Unmute at least the master and pcm channel (press the M Key) and increase the volume with the cursor up key. Leave the alsamixer with ESC and store the settings with
alsactl store

Add alsa to your daemons in /etc/rc.conf to automatically restore the mixer on bootup.

Just last line. I added alsa, but it shows error in startup?!
Where is the problem?

Problem that I forgot command:
gpasswd -a myname audio
