I have zero sound for video, audio, presentations, etc. and will only play that annoying loud beep when you hold down the backspace on the login screen.

I have checked and am not muted.

aplay -l returns

"**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC268 Analog [ALC268 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0"

I have purged alsa as well with no result.

I have an acer extensa 5620 and sound works in vista so that rules out hardware failure.

Ideas?
