Okay, once again here are the correct steps to restore sound to Youtube
videos using JAWS:
1. Load the Youtube page containing the video you want to listen to.
2. Turn off the virtual cursor by pressing JAWS key-Z.
3. Starting from the top of the page, tab repeatedly until you reach the
unmute button. This may require a lot of tabbing until you finally land on
it.
4. Once you are on the unmute button, press the Space bar and then press the
up arrow button repeatedly to increase the audio volume to the desired
level. Finally, press JAWS key-Z again to turn the virtual cursor back on.
I tried these steps myself, and they worked for me.

I recently had this issue too. I did have to increase my vol settings to
100% before I heard the song. I didn't do it your way though, I did first
press spacebar on the "mute" button and nothing happened, then I heard Jaws
say to press "Alt A" which I did till it rose to the level I wanted.

Hi
There is a way to do this.
1. Start playing the specific youtube video.
2. Use Jaws key plus z to turn off the virtual cursor.
3. Tab until you reach the unmute button. It is important to know that
you
have to tab quite a few times until you get there.
5. When you get to the unmute button, use the up arrow to turn the volume
up again. You will hear all kinds of stuff spoken but the sound of the
video should increase in volume.
The important thing is to turn off the virtual cursor before following
the
other steps and turn it on again afterwards.
This worked for me.

Hello all,
I was about to put the same query. Does anyone know a solution? If yes,
please suggest. I'm in need of a song, which I'm not able to hear. I need
the song immediately.
With regards,
N. Sneha.
