First things first. Make sure your volume isn't muted. Then make sure your speakers are turned on and volume isn't muted or low. Then check to see if your output is using the right sound device.

go to exaile.org and use the guide to put the exaile player in your source list. Installing that will also auto install all the codecs needed for mp3s.
