Default HDTV has no sound

Actually very faint sound at max vol w earphone but effectively silent.

It can't be the speakers because it does the same with two
different"speakers".

AM I right to think it is a capacitor in the amp circuit? The reason I doubt
is it does not respond to hitting/shaking. THe other thing is the faint
sound at high volume doesn't match past experience with amp capacitor
burnout.

THe unit is a Supersonic 7" 193a HDTV with a 12v power adaptor.

PS, is there any "electronics repair rules of thumb" cheat sheet anywhere?

It sounds like you need to go to the menu and turn your speakers to "On."
