Have you tried....
Testing your sound?
Adjusting the volume slightly until it works?
Try both of these.. I find I have this problem too but doing the second solution works.

Sound is OK. I have a sound with VLC and Movie Player. As you can see on the images "alsamixer" all are unmuted.
I tried to change settings in "Sound Preferences", I used "Audacity" to record sound from microphone with different settings, I used "Skype" to test the sound and the microphone but NO SOUND FROM THE MICROPHONE (internal and external).
Thank you for your suggestions.
