This could be caused by a stcuk headphone connector. When a headphone plug is inserted it disables the speaker. Sometimes this 'sticks' so that when the headphones are removed the speakewr is still disabled.
Try inserting headphones and 'jiggling' the plug a few times. If that fails then:

What you could do is run a battery powered 'active' speaker from something like a portable CD player plugged into the earphone socket, and use this as an amplified speaker system. This is a set-up that I use anyway and works very well.
