I don`t use LXDE in Lubuntu. Use Debian Testing based AntiX 11.
Try typing in terminal
Hit the f5 key and make sure speakers and other sound controls are not muted or turned up.
To unmute, Use the m key on keyboard.

thanks for the reply, but it didnt seem to change it.
i booted another distro off a live cd and got sound, so i can rule out a hardware problem.
could it have to do with that im using 32bit? and not 64?

No. 32bit will run on 64bit systems. So I don't think that had anything to do with it.

Might have more to do with the Kernel than anything else. Might be using a different release of alsa also maybe.

Try this: Go to System Tools, Users and Groups, and make sure that Audio Devices are enabled for your account. By default, this was disabled on my install. And I also had to go to Synaptic and uninstall Pulse. I think Pulse conflicts with Alsa. Good luck.

Hi. I'm having this exact same problem.
The solution posted by denflen didn't work. (pulse package was not installed. I uninstalled libpulse0 but it didn't work either.)
Here's the output of lshw -c sound:

Notes:
- I have checked codec compatibility in
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/HDAGeneric. It is supported.
- I have checked that everything is correct in the alsamixer, following these instructions:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/Alsamixer
- linux-alsa-driver-modules does not show up in Synaptic after adding ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/ppa. apt-get install linux-alsa-driver-modules-$(uname -r) also did not had results. This was according to
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/Installin ... verModules

Be sure that pavucontrol, pulseaudio, pulseaudio-utils and libgtk-3-0 are all installed. Then play with the different settings in pulseaudio volume control and the controls in your player until you get sound.
