[SOLVED] - Sound Issues

Hi everyone, I'm having issues getting my sound to work. I've already consulted the Arch and ALSA wikis, tried quite a few suggestions from several forums, and I still haven't solved my issue. I have an onboard soundcard that's recognized as snd-hda-intel, and it works without issue in other distros. I feel like maybe I'm missing something small. Also, alsamixer recognizes my card, but alsaconf does not. Here is the output I'm getting:

dmesg - http://pastebin.com/9vzpAru9
lsmod | grep '^snd' | columns -t - http://pastebin.com/MgxYKe6e
lspci - http://pastebin.com/W7uw2gSf
alsa-info.sh - http://pastebin.com/Z6uUdsuu

Thank you in advance for your help.

Re: [SOLVED] - Sound Issues

You have the same chip I do on my motherboard and works great here. Have you tied just playing a music CD or music file, opening alsamixer and unmuting and increasing sliders until you get sound?

Re: [SOLVED] - Sound Issues

I made some headway on this, actually, thanks to lagagnon. I installed VLC, and had it play a mp3 file while I messed with the settings. I finally got the sound working by choosing ALSA audio output as my output module, and HDA NVidia: ALC889 Analog (hw:1, 0) as my device in the VLC audio settings. If I choose the other NVidia devices listed, I hear nothing. Now I just need it to work overall.

Re: [SOLVED] - Sound Issues

I finally got it to work tonight, after editing /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf. Apparently it was trying to read the same card twice, for some reason.
