No sound in Kubuntu 12.04

[shanal]

Hi all, I am pretty new to linux and I dont know much. Recently i have installed Kubuntu 12.04 in dual boot with windows 7.

The problem is there is no sound in kubuntu. i have installed vlc player and have also updated the pre installed dragon player but there is no sound whatsoever....while in windows the audio is working fine...
I have not installed any other software related to audio in kubuntu.
Please help me....
