sound

My speakers were working before, but all of a sudden, they wont work in Linux anymore. I went on the soundcard detection, and the test sound won't play anymore either. Why?

Ok, I got to the sliders, and they are all up to the top and not on mute or anything. What else could be the problem?

I am also new at this and i dont have my sound card correctly configured yet because i dont know how.
