I'm sure we could work through some things with you, but for starters, have
you looked through the sound trouble-shooting guide on the wiki? [1]  That
should get you started, and if it doesn't fix your problem, you'll at least
have all of the information handy thatw e would have asked you about.

Also, is the volume plugin installed in one of your panels?  It should look
like a small speaker.  If it isn't, right-click on your panel, and select to
install it.  Your fix may be as easy as installing that panel applet, and
changing the volume.

Let us know if you still have more trouble,

Jim
