No sound after uninstall kmix and pulseaudio-equalizer

Hi everyone!

I am new on an Arch world and i tried kmix and PulseAudio-equalizer on KDE interface. Then I installed PulseAudio-lasdapi and uninstalled kmix and pulseaudio-equalizer. After a reboot my sound card fully disappear. I have no audio devices to select, no sound, nothing.

My result of lspci | grep -i audio

 00:1f.3 Audio device: Intel Corporation Device 9d71 (rev 21)

And when I open "pavucontrol", application seems to be stuck on "Establishing the connection to PulseAudio.. Please wait."

I also tried to reinstall pulseaudio and pulseaudio-alsa, but it does not help.

Please Help

EDIT:

When I try to execute "pulseaudio" on console, I got this:

E: [pulseaudio] module-ladspa-sink.c: Master sink not found
E: [pulseaudio] module.c: Failed to load module "module-ladspa-sink" (argument: "sink_name=ladspa_output.mbeq_1197.mbeq master= plugin=mbeq_1197 label=mbeq control=0,0,0,0,0,0,0,-0.7,0,0,0,0,-6.1,-6.0,-6.7"): initialization failed.
E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Module load failed.
E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Failed to initialize daemon.

and maybe if it will be helpful my config from /etc/pulse/default.pa:

EDIT 2:

Ok i solved this problem by editing: ~/.pulse/default.pa and delete this lines:

 ### Generated from: pulseaudio-equalizer
load-module module-ladspa-sink sink_name=ladspa_output.mbeq_1197.mbeq master=alsa_output.pci-0000_05_00.0.analog-stereo plugin=mbeq_1197 label=mbeq #control=-0.2,-0.2,-0.2,-0.2,3.5,3.5,3.5,3.5,3.5,3.5,3.5,2.5,2.5,0.0,0.0
set-default-sink ladspa_output.mbeq_1197.mbeq
set-sink-volume alsa_output.pci-0000_05_00.0.analog-stereo 65536
set-sink-mute alsa_output.pci-0000_05_00.0.analog-stereo 0
### END: Equalized audio configuration

Problem solveed )

Edit 3:

Hmm i think i found a bug in pulseaudio. I using a bluetooth earphones (beyerdynamic BT) and pulseaudio-equalizer connect to it and everythings works perfectly, then pulseaudio create in default.pa that commands:

### BEGIN: Equalized audio configuration
### Generated from: pulseaudio-equalizer
load-module module-ladspa-sink sink_name=ladspa_output.mbeq_1197.mbeq master=bluez_sink.00_1B_C3_09_3E_14.a2dp_sink plugin=mbeq_1197 label=mbeq control=0,0,0,0,0,0,0,-0.7,0,0,0,0,-4.4,-5.1,-6.4
set-default-sink ladspa_output.mbeq_1197.mbeq
set-sink-volume bluez_sink.00_1B_C3_09_3E_14.a2dp_sink 65536
set-sink-mute bluez_sink.00_1B_C3_09_3E_14.a2dp_sink 0
### END: Equalized audio configuration

and by default bluetooth headset is disconnected, and equalizer can't connect to it after reboot system, so all pulseaudio server crash, Afterwards I need to delete this entries and reboot my pc to get my sound back.

That's weird..
