If your device is still not producing sound, check to see if the App you are using is muted. Many apps will have sound settings where certain parts of the audio such as music can be muted. If these are all un-muted, check to see if the device’s sound is muted. Enter the settings app and scroll to SOUND. Ensure the sound is up and the buttons on the device can properly control the volume settings.
If the sound is too quiet, check to see if the volume is at maximum. If it is, check the speakers on the bottom of the device. Ensure there is no dirt or debris blocking the speakers. If the speakers are clogged, clean them by gently running a cotton swab over the outside of the speaker. You can also gently blow into the speakers using canned air to dislodge any debris blocking the speakers
