Something to test...
Open the sound controls with a double-click on the speaker icon at the
right-bottom of the window. In the play control column, click ADVANCED,
then check or UNcheck the "use digital audio" box. This with a
SoundBlaster card; yours may be different.

If you are trying to get sound from the CD drive jack, you can only use it
if your sound card is configured to deliver "analog" sound and not
"digital". Also, the CD drive analog audio cable needs to be connect to the
sound card. Digital signals use the motherboard to send the signals to the
sound card.
