I now have both video and the audio track.
Re: VLC Plays Video But No Sound –– addon
Supplement: My sound system is based on pulseaudio + alsamixer. After hibernation, my sound is blocked sometimes, e.g. when I start youtube under firefox before the sound is active. For this problem, I start this alias: alias pulse='sudo kill -9 $(pidof pulseaudio) && alsamixer -c0' (making sure that pulseaudio isn't installed twice.)
