Assuming the problem is "just" no sound output - you
must unmute the sound card, as the default settings
are to have it completely mute. You can change those
settings by running 'alsamixer' on the command line
and changing them. Use 'm' to mute/unmute and
'up'/'down' keys to increase/decrease sound volume.

It's worth checking at least
