some of your playback volumes are set to 0, so it makes sense it's mute. play with the volumes. see unimx help for a small how to.

Replying to abwillis:
You should probably include your hardware... with the 2.1.3 version VirtualPC does have sound in WindowXP here on my T42.
I expected the logs to have detailed information regarding hardware in use but, in case they do not, the hardware chipsets involved are nVidia nForce430/MCP61 with Analog Devices AD1988 miver.

The Volumes set to 0 seem to be those for surround type playback or are related to Line, Mic, Headphone - non of which are in use.
To clarify:
I have sounds from my eCS system (when VirtualPC is not running).
I do not have any sound from my WindowsXP guest running in VirtualPC.
If the problem was with the settings showing as 0 in the supplied log then I would not have sounds in eCS at all.
With regard to sounds in eCS when using these drivers: Best described as "flaky".
The game Klondike Solitaire (supplied with Warp4/eCS) suffers a performance hit ie runs much slower with these drivers installed when compared with a known "working" uniaud build (that does not have the lack of sound when running my Windows XP guest - with exactly the same mixer settings shown in the log).
It can be extremely difficult to boot to a working Desktop. Frequently on booting the end of the Startup sound is repeated causing the system to fail to boot to a working Desktop. It can take 5/6 attempts to overcome this problem.

This ticket 195 is *NOT* relevant.
I have sounds - albeit flaky - in eCS but not in a virtual guest os.

Hi
This ticket is too old. Please use the latest version of Uniaud. If the problem persist, please re-open the ticket.
