No sound from Youtube

Here is an odd one. I have sound on my computer, I can play music and videos. I can also go to web sites to watch and listen to videos. There seems to be no problem with playing video and sound except on Youtube. I can play Youtube videos but hear no sound.

My system is Windows 7 professional. I updated flash and macromedia but it made no difference. I also am using IE, Chrome, and Firefox for browsers. Recently, I upgraded iTunes but I don't know if that is when the problem started since I haven't been on Youtube for awhile.

Do you have any idea why sound will play for anything and any site except for videos from Youtube?

Oh my. It was that simple. I did not know there was a volume meter at the bottom of a youtube video. I increased the volume and I can now hear it. Imagine that :-). Thank you.
I had the same problem yesterday. My speakers tested fine for with everything except the browser.

While viewing a video on you tube, look for a speaker icon just under the video progress bar. It has a horizontal volume settings slider. Click on the slider and move it to the right and your speakers should work perfectly.

Attached is a screen print detailing the slider.

Hope this helps!
