I've seen this with a couple of our v5.0.x systems. Have you tried
turning off all the audio track monitor buttons in the timeline and then
turning the first 16 audio tracks on starting with track 1. When
I've seen this the editor had managed to turn off the primary
monitor option (the on/off button with the black border around it) so
none of the audio would play. Once you turn the audio track monitoring
on for all the tracks in the sequence (the first 16 tracks) composer
should place the black border around audio tracks 1 & 2 on/off button.

it at one point) was he was trying to slip and slide a clip. Possibly
some option clicking he did went astray. The sequence has multiple clips
and audio is missing on ALL of the clips, not just the one he was
slipping and sliding.

sequence to a good sequence, it would work, but it didn't, but I'm not
sure he followed the directions correctly.
