Well dummy me! I opened up the Gnome volume control and looked clear in the back. There were all kinds of controls I would never use....except one. Of course 'Master' and 'PCM' have to be active but it was the 'DAC' slider that was at 0. Now I have no idea what 'DAC' even stands for, right now I'm guessing 'Dummy Audio Control'. Problem solved....thank you one and all!
