Well technically I hadn't lost sound, only sound to my speakers. When I
plugged in headphones I had sound. I found out that there is a ALSA
mixer setting that you can turn off and my speakers worked again.
If headphone work on your machine you can start up alsamixer and then go
all the way to the right, I think it was called MM or something like that.

No, MM means that the column in alsamixer display is muted. Hit M
and the MM will change to 00 and not be muted. Hitting the up and
down arrows will change the level in the column.
