No sound in Ali M5451

Hi ,
I just turned to Arch this morning, and i have a little problem
My ALi Corporation M5451 PCI AC-Link doesn`t seems to work with sound .
the modules are loaded fine, alsa is working .
I had the same problem with Arch don`t panic but then i was with KDE , and i don`t remember how i solved the problem:|
i searched the wiki for some answers, but i don`t seem to find the answer
if anyone can please help me, i really like this distro and i really want to solve this problem
Thanks
