I have a question regarding my audio not playing.

I am using my on-board sound with ear buds. My home has a lot of carpet, so when I walk around I get static electricity. On my ear buds, there is a small ring of metal around them. When I am putting them back into my ear after sitting down, I get a small shock. One day the sound stopped working after it shocked me one time. Is the on-board audio fried?
