You need to verify that the speakers are connected to the speaker output
of your sound card.  If there are multiple speaker outputs (e.g. a front
panel one and a rear panel one), one of them is usually intended for
headphones (usually the front panel one).  There are settings in Pulse
for switching between the headphone and speaker output.  You should try
those.  It's bitten me before.
