Hi,

After yesterday's update I can't get any sound off my box anymore :-(
I tried mpd, xine, mplayer and youtube in firefox, and all of them are completely silent.
Looked in alsamixer and the master volume is in the appropriate level, also the respective modules seem to be loaded
and ok.

Here goes the relevant part of my pacman.log
