Do be sure to check out the control panel, since you can completely silence
the sound section via control-panel settings.  Try resetting the whole shebang
to factory defaults before deciding that hardware has definitely failed.

If the hardware has really failed and you're unable to troubleshoot it using
the schematics in the Apple IIGS Hardware Reference Manual, I'd really suggest
turning the task over to somebody with the knowledge and equipment.  You can
do more harm than good poking around at random in the circuitry.
