Ah so you got things figured out. Sorry, it didn't occur to me to
suggest checking System Preferences. I had incorrectly assumed you
had done this. As crazy as it is I've encountered a case once where a
similar thing happen. What it was in my case is I stupidly started
mucking about with Audio Hijack and managed to screw things up, but
yet I could get certain sounds from the system.
Glad everything is working again.

Hi all. I fixed my sound!!!
I really recommend that anybody with one mac have two if you can
afford it somehow; that way you can check your steps on one if the
other isn't talking.
I knew that the problem had started when I was navigating the
output devices in system preferences sound. So I thought if i could
get back there i could fix it. so I traced the steps on the other
computer. if you open system preferences from the terminal, the
search field is two vo-arrows to the left. You can type sound and
hit enter and you will be in the sound window. two vo-arrows to the
right and you click output to make sure that tab is selected. three
more to the right and interact with output devices and arrow around
until it talks.
Since my computer isn't talking, I had to ssh in from another
computer. but I know that if you open an application from the
terminal via ssh, you will be then in that window on the computer
where the command is being carried out. so i was able to ssh in,
carry out the command, and then navigate following the steps I had
worked out on the other mac. I don't know why I didn't think of
this before.
Thanks for all the suggestions.
