This has happened to me. Sometimes I get no sound.
A complete shut down and then a cold restart usually solves it.
If not, you may have some disk corruption and need to run a utility like Disk Warrior.

Thanks for your help. But ive had this problem for like a month or so now. I mean i can hear music come out but its just to loud. If i load up a page on the net and it has music its real loud and i dont know how to lower it. I have the volume icon on my menu bar and i try to lower it from there and it doesnt let me i cant even put it in mute its always all the way up. My volume keys on my keyboard dont work either. If someone can help me

Do you get the volume changing bezel with a no/stop sign below it?
Try plugging in and unplugging some headphones a few times, sometimes the port gets confused because the part which tells the computer that something's inserted into the slot doesn't pop back out or it thinks there's an optical jack in there.

I doubt it is the port - sometimes a damaged port can result in no sound because the port thinks an optical connection is there, but this will result no sound.

Also when i plug in the headphones sound still comes out through the computer speakers and i get no sound coming out the headphones. Am i suppose to change some settings before pluggin in the headphones or should the sound just switch automatically to the headphones?

Peeb, you're right.
Kevin, I'm even more confused as to what's wrong with it now.
Try resetting the PRAM. To do this, reboot, hold down command (apple key) + option (alt key) + P + R right after the apple chime, keep holding it until you hear 3 more chimes.
