Default Lost sound in totem, vlc, mplayer, flash, banshee etc

Hi all,

I am running opensuse 11 (gnome), and somehow have lost my sound when playing video files in totem, vlc, mplayer or flash players (eg youtube). Vid files were fine in totem and flash player (ie sound was working fine) up to a couple of days ago, now I get nothing (video works fine, sound doesn't).

I did install vlc-beta, but had some issues and reverted back to current vlc, but not sure if this has anything to do with my problem. I opened banshee for the first time the other day (since putting on suse 11) and loaded my music library, but when I try and play I get no sound (just skips through the playlist really fast as though it can't 'read' the song).

I have no idea what happened - as far as I can tell all volume sliders are up (although the one in banshee looks muted, and won't let me slide the volume control at all). If I right-click on the volume control in the bottom panel and go to 'open volume control' I get a pop-up saying "connection failed: connection refused".

Anyone know where I should start?

As far as I can tell I have all gstreamer codec plugins installed (good, bad, ugly etc).
