I don't recall seeing any mention of your system's sound capabilities.  In my 
case of I have 2 potential sound outputs one is a built-in "Intel Corporation 5 
Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio" while the other is "Audio 
device: NVIDIA Corporation GK106 HDMI Audio Controller" located on my Graphics 
card...which is disconnected.

I use KDE.  As such, to ensure I get sound under KDE I would have to bring up 
"systemsettings" go to "Multimedia--->Audio and Video Settings and ensure that 
"Built-in Audio Analog Stereo" is at the top of the preference list for the 
playback.  If HDMI is at the top, no sound....of course.
