Check your sound levels (Sound and Video -> Volume Control, or
alsamixer).  Does system-config-soundcard output the test sound (guitar
strumming)?  Sound volumes may not be restored at boot
if /etc/modprobe.conf is not correctly setup to do so.

You should have snd- modules loaded, quite a number of them, check the
output of lsmod (soundcore, snd, snd-*).  These get loaded due to the
setup in /etc/modprobe.conf.

What was updated this morning? (you should have a list of all changes
made to the system in the logfile for your update program)  If this list
was large then pare it down to what 'might' have effected sound.
