There is a red cross beside the speaker icon on the panel, indicating something wrong. And there's no sound, of course.
I used command lsmod | grep snd, and the result is:

The result of command cat /proc/asound/cards is:

Quote:

0 [CK804 ]: NFORCE - NVidia CK804
NVidia CK804 with ALC655 at irq 23

And the result of ps -ef | grep pulseaudio is:

Thanks!

Maybe you have installed wrong modules. You can try unistall pulseaudio, install the last version of ALSA, and if you still having problems run #alsaconf. If it's works,see again the output of lsmod and use it like a reference in a next installation of pulseaudio. I never have used pulseaudio so it's all I can tell you.
Good luck.

Got it! quite simple actually. Just do the following:
System --> preferences --> Hardware --> Volume Control, and make sure the speaker buttons are not quiet.
