I don't quite know how to check this, (sorry!) but when I do this:
$ pulseaudio
E: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Daemon already running.
E: [pulseaudio] main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed.
which tells me it is running, right?
Yes, it's running. Ok.
Anything else I should check?
Check your volume controls and see if you have them muted. I'm not sure
which desktop you're running, but with XFCE, I can left-click the
speaker icon in the upper right to bring up the mixer.
Also useful, install pavucontrol, run it and check what it says. If you
install it, it'll be under
Applications->Multimedia->PulseAudio Volume Control
(at least it is under XFCE and older versions of Gnome).

Yes, I found this online immediately after sending e-mail and got this
working upon reboot....Thanks for this also!!
No problem. Glad you got it sorted out.
