Since switching to archlinux, the only problem that I am unable solve is the inablity to play multiple sounds.. i had this problem when i first installed archlinux. back then i tried installing pulseaudio and found that cumbersome. eventually went back to alsa and found magically i could play sounds at once..
now again it has reoccurred ever since the module init tools upgrade. i have tried reconfiguring alsa with alsaconf with no avail.
on trying to play sound file from the 2nd app i get a knotif saying
The audio playback device HDA Intel (ALC880 Analog) does not work
Falling back to .
some of the conf files i have:
[$]> grep MODULES /etc/rc.conf
# MODULES: Modules to load at boot-up. Prefix with a ! to blacklist.
# NOTE: Use of 'MOD_BLACKLIST' is deprecated. Please use ! in the MODULES array.
MODULES=(e100 mii slhc snd-hda-intel snd-mixer-oss snd-pcm-oss snd-hwdep snd-page-alloc snd-pcm snd-timer snd soundcore !snd-pcsp)[$]> grep DAEMONS /etc/rc.conf
