latest version of TalkingArch

[Kyle]

There are two different files at play here. /etc/asound.conf is the
alsa card configuration file, which was created if you chose a card
other than the default, i.e. if you heard the voice recording about
having more than one sound card on your computer. If you have only one
card, and if you did not hear the recording, there will be no
/etc/asound.conf, and you don't need one. /var/lib/alsa/asound.state is
the mixer state configuration, and is written either by running
alsactl store
from inside the chroot, or by running
alsactl -f /mnt/var/lib/alsa/asound.state store
from outside of the chroot, assuming you mounted your installed system
at /mnt. If I remember correctly, I ran
alsactl store
from inside the chroot in my audio guide, as it is certainly the easier
command, and should store the mixer state in the right place without
any errors.
