MacBook audio problem - speakers don't work, headphone/external does

[phil123]

The audio on my macbook suddenly stopped working. When I click on the audio adjuster, it won't even let me change the level (the little circle is white now, not blue).

But when I plug in headphones or an external speaker, everything works fine. I can once again adjust the audio and get sound

There was a red light eminating from the audio out jack for a while (last couple of days) but today, there is no longer a red light. Still no audio from the speakers.

Any help appreciated.

Thank you. Working on all the solutions. No luck yet, but at least I know I'm not alone in this.
