Open your browser to a youtube video and start playing it, while you 
have pavucontrol open. You should see the volume bar, on playback tab, 
twitch. If it doesn't twitch, chances are you have it muted. The volume 
level should be set to 100% and the proper output device selected. Once 
in awhile I have to open alsamixer from a terminal to reset volume 
levels. Why that happens I have no clue, but if alsa ain't right, pulse 
doesn't stand a chance.

Also, if you have HDMI audio controllers that you don't use, turn them 
to "off" under the configuration tab in pavucontrol, just so that aren't 
selected by accident. :) Ric
