I have a
00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)
I followed this:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ALSA
used alsaconf and made the changes to modprobe.conf (I dont even have a pc speaker). I also added @alsa to my daemons in rc.conf
then I unmuted my master and pcm channels
My audio has 7.1 hd audio and I have 2.1 speakers
but the problem is, there's no audio; please help

Does alsaconf recognizes your card? run alsamixer and be sure your audio is on
Offline
yes it does

Try adding: MODULES=(!snd_pcsp)
The fact that you do not have a pcspeaker does not mean the kernel will not load the module by default, it just does.
Hope this helps.

This is what I do, usually, to set up Alsa.
0. make sure you add yourself to the audio group
1. insall alsa (pacman -S alsa-lib alsa-oss alsa-utils alsaplayer gstreamer0.10-alsa alsa-plugins )
2. run "alsaconf" to detect and configure your audio card.
3. at a console type: alsamixer --> use it to adjust volume (to start make everything at lest 60%)
4. aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav --> Test that sound works
5. issue "alsactl store" --> Save Settings (as root)
6. add alsa to the daemons line (/etc/rc.conf)
Have you done all that?
If you did, what happened when you run the audio test?
