  • From your alsamixer picture, it seems your headphone is muted (MM shown in the bottom). Try to unmute by pressing m on the keyboard; should then show 00 in green color like with the other channels. – ridgy May 10 '17 at 10:09
  • I presses "M", it has now 00 and I crank the volume up but still no sound – Nick Pampoukidis May 10 '17 at 11:45
  • Next step: Run pavucontrol(the pulseaudio mixer) and look what output device is selected for the program in use (Playbacktab), what output devices are available (Output Devicestab) and how they are configured (Configuration tab). Play around a bit to see what options you have. – ridgy May 10 '17 at 12:05

I had this exact problem. My solution:

1) open PulseAudio control

2)go to the configuration tab.

3)select analog stereo duplex to use the computers built in audio&mic.

Reference from question answered here.

It may help. Worked for me.
