Hate to say it, but it sounds like you fried some electronics. This has nothing to do with being a hybrid, just any modern car. You need a qualified mechanic.

Check the battery terminals making sure they’re tight as not corroded , if those are good you want to check the main fuse.

Completely disconnect the battery and engage the ignition switch. Then try reconnecting it again and maybe that will get a reset on it. Do you happen to know what arced on it? I assume you mean you were working on your sound system and then it arced when you reconnected the terminals? Also any noteworthy changes to the system?
