It's /var/lib/alsa/asound.state.  If you have a working Linux system with 
sound, mount it and copy your asound.state over to /var/lib/alsa on the live 
CD.  You'll then have to run:

alsactl restore

That's what I had to do.  It was not easy without speech, but fortunately, I 
was already at a root shell.

What package do you mean and what sound card do you have?  If it works in 
Debian or some other Linux, it's probably related to the same problem I 
encountered.  Upon thinking about it, I think the sound problem might be an 
Arch upstream problem and not specific to Talking Arch.  Similarly, the 
brltty problem has to do with the default brltty.conf and isn't specific to 
Talking Arch.
