Could not play media on kubuntu installed on ASUS E200H

Question

I recently bought an Asus E200H that came pre-installed with Windows 10. Due to a storage problem, I installed Kubuntu 18.04 on the system after removing Windows 10.

But I am unable to play any media file (audio as well as video) on the laptop (including on VLC and YouTube). Whenever I try to play the video on youtube the video mostly just keeps on buffering and when the video starts it progresses with uneven speed(even though I have a high speed internet connection). The same happens on VLC but without any buffering. I am even uanble to play any mp3 files both online and offline files. I faced the same problem even after installing lubuntu on the system. I have even installed the ubuntu-restricted-extra-packages.

What can be the problem and how would I fix it?

Have you enabled the 'unfree' package-tree and installed the codec packages? — zx485, Sep 18 '18 at 19:49
