help with audio... use to work???

hello again fello archers!

as i become morea linux user i am finding the necessity to have audio.  atm i cannot seem to get my audio to work.  i have installed alsa-utils and alsa-lib, unmuted and jacked up the volume yet nothing i do seems to work.  i have had audio work just fine before on arch using alsamixer however it refuses to work.... and yes i am part of the audio group.

my audio card is an ac97

thanks for any help you may be able to give me!

of course this is funny, but try alsamixer maybe u got sound muted. look up master and pcm channels.

Re: help with audio... use to work???

tried alsaconf... nothing..... and yes i have unmuted my master, master m, line and pcm channels

so...... my next best guess is maybe to use a diferent sound driver? what yould you guys recomend? i listen to music, watch movies, and play the odd game.... just kinda standard stuff.

thanks for your time!
