alsmixer not found

I installed latest Arch (3.04 kernel) and while trying to get sound by following instructions in alsa wiki I get message
alsamixer command not found
It seems as it sound card (intel ) unless that 0 down below implies otherwise.

Re: alsmixer not found

jaylm3,
Welcome to the forums.  Please use BBCode code tags for program output.  It sets the output apart from the prose, it uses scroll bars where needed,  and uses a monospaced phont so columns line up.

This is in code tags.  If you click the "Quote" link, you can see how I did this

Thanks
