Ok, I have kde in my archlinux and i dont have any sound, just the beep sound. I downloaded some drivers for my sound card <Onboard VIA AC97 Sound Card> from Via wb page, but it didint work. ARts started to say that it couldnt load default playback. So i downloaded alsa-utils just to see what happened, and that message form arts didint pop again. Now its only xine that says it didint found any sound driveers.
SO now im all confused!!, i checked modules.conf and theres no modules there.
Any ideas!!?????:/

Try:
# lspci -v | grep -i audio
If the output is something like :
00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 60)
add in etc/rc.conf by MODULES=(snd-via82xx)

Yeah, this is what i got: 00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 30)
Um but i dont know if thats a good thing

Only with xine ? remove en reinstall ?
try some other players smplayer or kaffeine to see if you got the same error ?
you downloaded some drivers for the sound card perhaps you have to remove them ?
the driver is already present in the kernel
This is how i install the sound on a ac97 board
# pacman -S alsa-utils
# pacman -S alsa-oss
# amixer set Master 95 unmute
# amixer set PCM 95 unmute
# alsactl store (enter)
Add alsa by etc/rc.conf DAEMONS=(alsa)
Add snd-via82xx by etc/rc.conf MODULES=(snd-via82xx)
in snd-via82xx dont change the xx

Well, amixer tells me theres no such device, but i downloaded Kaffeine to see if it works better.

This is what i got
[root@myhost dev]# alsactl store
alsactl: save_state:1253: No soundcards found...
[root@myhost dev]# amixer set Master 95 unmute
amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device
[root@myhost dev]# amixer set PCM 95 unmute
amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device

It looks an alsa problem
look if alsa-lib is loaded normale its a kde dependencie
# pacman -S alsa-lib
See if the sound driver is loaded
$ lsmod | grep -i snd
there must be something in the list like
snd_via82xx 23192 1
if not try modprobe snd-via82xx
to see if it loads without errors
next go to /proc/asound
open the de file with kedit > version it give something:
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.14rc3 (Wed Mar 14 07:25:50 2007 UTC)
open the file > cards something like:
0 [V8237 ]: VIA8237 - VIA 8237
VIA 8237 with ALC850 at 0xe800, irq 17
I am running the 32 bit version of arch and the 2.6.21-ARCH kernel
pc is amd athlon 64 processor 3200+ with via ac97 sound onboard

2.6.16-ARCH, aha. Run 'pacman -Syu'.
(... and read all frontpage news, get a knoppix livecd or something similar before rebooting, etc)
