Two GUI apps I have found useful in troubleshooting audio are:

gstreamer-properties
gnome-volume-control.pulse

I just tried adjusting some settings though both, testing after each change, yet I can still hear no sound through the laptop speakers.

Besides that, find your audio devices with 'aplay -l' and/or 'aplay -L',
then try playing to all of those devices like this:

aplay -Dhw1,0 somefile.wav

aplay -l only lists one playback device, so I'm not sure what else I could attempt to play sound with.

Note that aplay is picky about file formats.  If I recall, flac files
won't play.  I use wav files and have generally been successful.

I used a .wav file, found at /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav yet I hear no noise, with any of the .wav files found in /usr/share/sounds/alsa/

Thanks Rob.

Anyone have any other suggestions?

Best regards
