Open your terminal and type "alsamixer" to check whether or not they are muted.

yeah it is kinda weird. i dont know if it works but click on the volume icon on the taskbar and go to the preferences, then output and choose analog headphones on the conector area. just give it a try

For volume on Ubuntu, you have to enable it V.I.A the terminal.
I don't remember exactly how but I'm sure you can look it up.
