Try going to YaST > Hardware > Sound > Other > Volume and move the PCM
and Master volume controls up there to about 85 (all of them, except
"Capture Feedback"). At that time, also use the 'Test Sound' on the
same tab, also 'Test Sound' from the drop-down menu at the bottom

After this (if successful at 'Test Sound'), move up the volume
settings in KMix/Mixer.

Check that your ALSA version is updated (firmware same as for your
kernel version), by doing:

    $ rpm -qa | grep alsa

If not, update ALSA (all) + ALSA Driver as mentioned here:
http://forums.opensuse.org/hardware/406979-my-sound-very-low-headphones-wont-work.html#post1952368.
It may help to reinstall (the latest versions of) all, in any case.

Now, test sound again (as above).

HTH,

Jay
