Hi ciitaram,
Welcome to Linux Questions.
There is going to be a lot of assumption here because you have not posted exctly what happened.
First of all do the speakers work. Have you checked that.
Well as far as the audio is concerned I think you do not have audio at all in the output. Did you try 'alsamixer' and _unmuting_ everything and then playing a good file. Ubuntu is a live dvd so boot in with Ubuntu again and see if you get the audio.
Post back so that we can help you further.

First things have you checked the speakers? Check the speakers on a different computer - else use differnet speakers - if you do not have speakers then use someone elses nokia phones speakers or headsets whatever you can lay yur hands on.
Log in as root (or you can use sudo) and run 'alsaconf'. Ideally you should get the sound cads detected here. You may then run 'modprobe' and see for yourself if there is anything that says snd or alsa* - in either case your card has been detected.
