Audio on Eeepc

Hi
I recently decided to finally let go of Debian on my Eeepc 1005HA and try Arch. I got through the install pretty easily and worked through to get everything set up. A couple days ago I was setting up my audio. I used the wiki, set up everything like it said it did, and it worked beautifully. But a couple reboots later, it stopped. Nothing changed, it just stopped working. I made sure ALSA levels were right, that the modules were loaded, but it still won't work giving an error along the lines of "Unable to load Audio Driver". I went on the wiki for insight, and it gave me a few commands that should help reach an answer.
Output:

Please put your pants back on, man, I feel weird having to ask twice.
