YouTube is flash, and the problem with sound in flash is an old and known one.
The problem mostly is that flash uses OSS traditional sound, through /dev/dsp,
so the first thing I would do is check that the permissions on /dev/dsp
allows for reading and writing for the logged in user.
If that isn't it, play around with mixer settings. I would recommend alsamixer
from the command line (not as root, as the logged in user) because the GUI
mixers don't normally show all controls
But the suggestion to upgrade is also a good one. 9.3 is EOL since quite a
while, and doesn't receive security updates anymore

But, what we have here is "No sound from YouTube".
Any ideas?
