I am an Archlinux user and I ve had problems with alsamixer which didn't play sound in google-chrome. So I 1st tried to uninstall it using:sudo pacman -Rns alsa-plugins alsa-tools alsa-ossAfter removing the alsa (so I ve thought) I could still call it using command alsamixer which is bizarre. So i tried ti completely remove it by changing my pwd into the /bin and using command: sudo rm alsa*which did seem to remove the alsa and the command alsamixer wasnt reckognized any more (file .asoundrc in my home folder was also removed by me): [ziga@ziga-cq56 ~]$ alsamixerbash: alsamixer: command not foundThen I tried to reinstall the same packets that I deleted and now I get:[ziga@ziga-cq56 ~]$ alsamixerbash: alsamixer: command not foundIt is weird that Amarok music player still plays music. Can anyone help me recover alsa?
ALSAMIXER - deleted the alsa* from /bin - need to recover
alsa
You probably had alsa-utils and alsa-lib still installed. Remove them and then reinstall with 'alsa-plugins alsa-tools alsa-oss alsa-utils'. Alsa-lib should install automatically as a dependency of the others.
