Try plugging the speakers into something you know works.

Or go out, get a 7.1 card and speakers.  Makes computing real enjoyable  Seriously, surround sound was the best upgrade I think I have ever made to my computer.

Uhm... That would have been my old computer, which I was using up until about an hour before I brought the new one on line.

Their network equipment is truly craptacular, but for actual machines, I haven't seen anybody better.
