Description:
Shared library libcarla_native-plugin.so missing, no audio when editing track.
Possibly carla (community package, part of group pro-audio) should be added as a package dependency.

Additional info:
When I manually install carla package from community I do have working audio.

Validated By : Signature

Steps to reproduce:
- Start a minimalist installation of Arch Linux (e.g. archlinux/archlinux vagrant box)
```
vagrant init archlinux/archlinux
vagrant up
```
- Install minimalist WM and lmms and lanch WM
```
sudo pacman -S xorg xorg-drivers xf86-video-fbdev fluxbox sx xterm lmms
which startfluxbox > ~/.local/sx/sxrc
chmod 740 ~/.local/sx/sxrc
sx
```
- On my system X refused to start with virtualbox-guest-modules-arch installed. If so, install virtualbox-guest-dkms
```
sudo pacman -S virtualbox-guest-dkms
reboot
sx
```
- From WM start a terminal (e.g. xterm)
- From terminal, launch lmms and notice the errors about libraries that can't be loaded
```
lmms
Cannot load library /usr/lib/lmms/libcarlarack.so: (libcarlabase.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

@evybongers: Thanks for the report and sorry for the late reply (we don't have active bug wrangling).

I can't reproduce the error messages you're seeing in version 1.2.1-2.

Also note, that carla is not required to run lmms. Carla is used as a compiled-in component of lmms and the shared libraries should be in the package:

pacman -Ql lmms|grep carla

lmms /usr/lib/lmms/libcarlabase.so
lmms /usr/lib/lmms/libcarlapatchbay.so
lmms /usr/lib/lmms/libcarlarack.so
