[ubuntu-in] Sound / Video driver missing after vmware tool installed

[Fabian Enos]

Well I thought this had happened to me(no sound driver) but I found
that the system volume had been set to 0. If this is the case for you
then here is how you fix it:

1) Open a terminal and type 'sudo alsamixer'
2) Set the master volume to max
3) Press escape
4) Try playing a sound
