I've just numbered your above steps so I could keep going...
5 Press the left arrow (as in, the left arrow key on the keyboard!) until you come across AIF1 DAC timeslot 0 volume, and if the value isn't around 65, use the up and down arrows to increase/decrease it.
6 Keep using the left arrow until you get to DAC volume, and then press the up and down arrows to increase / decrease the value to approximately 60.
7 Keep using the left arrow until you get to the Speaker volume (very last entry), and use the up and down arrows to increase / decrease the value to between 80 - 90.
8 If you sound is now working, press esc to exit alsamixer, and run 'sudo alsactl store' to save these settings to file so it is used in the future.
Ah, thank you. That was simple and effective instruction concerning a counter-intuitive interface. And to add to the instructions
7.5 Keep using the left arrow until you get to headphone volume, and use the up and down arrows to set it to 90 or so.
