Sound stopped working on my CentOS 6.8 system several months ago.

alsamixer may tell you something useful.

When I select HDA Intel PCH, which is what it should be using, everything looks normal with one possible exception. There are three volume sliders labeled S/PDIF and the second one has "Default" tacked on to it. All three have volume set at zero and alsamixer won't allow any change.

The default should be HDA Intel PCH.

I think you set the default with the space bar, though I haven't done it in a sufficiently long time that I'm not completely certain of that.
