sound fails after last upgrade

Hello everybody,

Last night i did a "pacman -Syu", and that caused my sound to stop working. Under KDE, kmix tells me that it can't find a mixer. Anybody got a solution? Anybody else experiencing the same problem?

Re: sound fails after last upgrade

Did you remove any OSS compatibility modules from modprobe.conf, and rerun alsaconf?

Re: sound fails after last upgrade

I had same problem. Sound module was not  loaded automatically  anymore . I had to put sound module to rc.conf  MODULES  line . Btw  i had many other modules  not loading automatically , parport_pc,  lp  and maybe others .

<carefully trying to not hijack the thread>

I thought the alsa config utility made the addtions to modprobe.conf; I don't remember adding it myself.

lp, certainly, and if my memory serves, parport needed to be added manually on one of my machines, too.   I exchanged a couple of e'mails with tpowa on this a few months ago.  The modules remain in my config file, and I'm happily print so haven't worried about it.

I updated udev from testing reposity and read this guide  :
file:///etc/udev/readme-udev-arch.txt
This solved my problems . ( Reading the guide i suppose ).
