Toshiba 40BL702 No sound

[Davy]

Anyone had a Toshiba 40BL702 with no sound? This uses a Vestel 17MB65S-3 main board.

Sound at headphone socket OK but not from speakers, the headphone socket is providing the switching 2.5 'mute' voltage. The small pesky multi-layer smd snubber caps. appear to check OK.... and the 24V supply is OK for the NTP-8030 output chip.... anyone tried changing it? Yeah, I know it's soldered underneath for the heat sinking.
