No sound from speakers on rear projection TV

Hi People,

Toshiba "Theaterview" TV, about 12 yrs old, all of a sudden, no sound. Channels change , mute button works with sub titles and all, just no sound. Any idea if a DIY guy could fix this? Circuitboard, you think?

Thanks!!

Did you hit DOLBY button ??? This should be off

Do you have a cable box, or is the cable/antenna hooked directly to the TV. Some cable boxes (especially the junk Motorola ones Comcast used) have their own mute. I had a tech out 3x before they figured out he cable box was muting itself and programmed the "help" button on the remote to work as a mute button.

Also doublecheck the settings on the TV and make sure the speakers are turned on.
