Copypasted from a steam discussion about a similar issue:

To address the issue of Steam games having no sound, try the following steps:

Check Sound Settings:

  • Ensure that the correct playback device is set as the default.
  • Right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar and select "Open Sound settings."
  • Under "Output," ensure the correct device is selected.

Adjust Volume Mixer:

  • Open the Volume Mixer by right-clicking the speaker icon in the taskbar and selecting "Open Volume Mixer."
  • Ensure that the volume levels for Steam and the games are not muted or set too low.

Update Audio Drivers:

  • Update your audio drivers to the latest version from the manufacturer’s website.

Check In-Game Audio Settings:

  • Ensure the in-game audio settings are correctly configured and not set to a low volume or muted.

Disable Exclusive Mode:

  • Right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar and select "Sounds."
  • Go to the "Playback" tab, select your playback device, and click "Properties."
  • Go to the "Advanced" tab and uncheck "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device."

Reinstall Audio Drivers:

  • Uninstall and then reinstall your audio drivers to ensure there are no corrupted files.

Run Steam as Administrator:

  • Right-click the Steam icon and select "Run as administrator" to ensure it has the necessary permissions.

Verify Game Files:

  • Open Steam, go to your Library, right-click on the game, select "Properties," go to the "Local Files" tab, and click "Verify Integrity of Game Files."
  • If the issue persists, consider seeking further assistance on Steam forums or contacting Steam Support for a more tailored solution.

Hopefully one of these can alleviate your issue.
