[SOLVED] Alsa not installed on a clean Arch Install

Hi there, I have just completed my first install of Arch. I have noticed that i have no audio so I looked for Also, Alsamixer and attempted to pulseaudio and i cant find anything.

I ran the following
Finding Audio Firmware

sudo find / -name alsa
     /usr/share/alsa
     /usr/include/alsa

sudo find / -name pulseaudio
     **blank**

sudo find / -name alsamixer
     **blank**

Audio Devices

lspci | grep -i audio
0b:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GP102 HDMI Audio Controller (rev a1)
0d:00.3 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Family 17h (Models 00h-0fh) HD Audio Controller

I have looked over the documentation for Alsa and it advises that this should be installed in the linux-firmware that i installed during my pacstrap from the installation.

Any help would be fantastic.
