Thanks for the reply's.  The problem was my bad for not noticing which 
channels were muted on the Audio Mixer.

I have the sound back, but it can be best described as snap, crackle and 
pop!  I have noticed that if I mute the Headphone channel everything 
else is muted.

A screenshot is attached.

Thanks in advance
