I had the same problem but I just found the solution at the end of this thread : http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=264201
Apparently this was a problem due the migration from pacman v2 to v3.

B ut now I have another problem : when reading m4a files in Rhythmox, I get 100% CPU usage and the sound is saccaded. Totaly unlistenable :(
