I have had this problem here as well. What I did was go into settings > Sounds and sure you have an option set where you can control your sound volume with the volume buttons on the phone; so every time I loose sounds now I just give the volume buttons a couple of taps and sounds are back once again.

You're just a treat if that makes you happy.:)

And, btw: You can go into settings and decide how you want that side switch to 
work: as an orientation lock, or as a mute.

  Actually, I'm writing because my iPhone has been falling silent now, and I 
either have to go plug it in to iTunes to reset voiceover, or flag down someone 
sighted to go to settings.  This again was confirmed by my 13-year-old geekette 
daughter.

I've only noticed this fairly recently, but it is very much a concern since 
this is my only source of phone contact and I don't always travel with my 
computer available.

Has anyone mentioned this tendency to Apple Accessibility?

Thanks

Thanks for these tips - I do appreciate your help. I did have the switch moved 
to mute but I also thoughtt  - and was confused by the fact - that the same 
switch is supposed to lock the screen orientation. I've got my sounds bakc, and 
i am a happy man again. I have so many questions regarding iPad and the 
learning curve is so very steep but I'm doing my best. Thank you all for your 
support.

Hi Simon:
Check your side switch.  if it got moved to mute, this could account for it.  
Otherwise go into settings/sound and check your volume for sound.  Sometimes it 
gets tweaked and acts differently.

Listers,

I've lost my Voiceover sounds on the iPad. Voiceover works fine but i can't hear any 
of the feedback sounds i.g. when I touch the screen or type, or activate a link, or 
any other such sounds. I don't know what's happened and how I could have accomplished 
it,<smile>

Any help would be appreciated.

Simon
