Try force reloading alsa or reinstalling alsa and pulseaudio.

This really depends on your distro and sound card... probably.

What makes you think the package manager is broken? That's a bigger problem than sound not working... If you don't update often, there will be a lot of updates. Perhaps you updated to a new version of Ubuntu? You're sure you tried everything in my link?



I'm not familiar with Ubuntu anymore though...

You came on here, asked an extremely vague question - didn't provide any details on what is actually going on, what events could have caused the issue, or what you've already tried to fix the issue - and you expect someone to pull an answer out of thin air?
