No sound - ASRock 939Dual-Sata - onboard sound SOLVED

I get an artsd error message when KDE starts informing me that the null device will be used as no device can be found. This is what have I tried so far:

lsmod

snd_ac97_bus            2176  0 
snd_timer              22148  1 snd_pcm

soundcore               8160  1 snd
snd_page_alloc          8840  1 snd_pcm

I have ran alsaconf and three options are presented:

intel8x0 ALi Corporation M5455
mpu401 snd-mpu401
Legacy Probe legacy ISA chips

I have tried all three to no avail. Any suggestions where I should go from here?

Thanks.

OK - Sorted it 

Just ran a :

pacman -Su

and there was a note to remove the oss compatibility modules from /etc/modules.conf. I commented out the relevant lines and rebooted.

I now have sound
