aRts problem?

I've just upgraded all the packages including the KDE, and what happened after reboot is that my xmms no longer play any sounds. Not even ALSA or eSD

anytime i run "artsd", I get this output

artsd: error while loading shared libraries: libjack.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

when i do "lsmod", nothing seems to change to the entry before i upgraded.

sr_mod                 18852  0

joydev                 10560  0
evdev                  10112  0

and i didn't change my entry on rc.conf, so i believe my sound module should be automatically loaded everytime my machine starts.

MODULES=(usbserial ide-scsi eepro100 snd-maestro3 snd_pcm_oss nvidia)
DAEMONS=(!syslog-ng !syslogd !klogd !hotplug !pcmcia network netfs alsamixer iptables crond)

Another piece of information is that everytime I point XMMS to be using aRTS or eSD, it always gives me this output "Couldn't open audio, make sure your sound card is configured properly.........". Even with ALSA, no sound comes out.

Can anyone help me or encounter this before? I'm starting to pull my hair out here.

Much thanks ahead!
