Try both front and back audio ports. Post which ports don't work. Front or back?

Try both the ports with a pair of earphones/headphones or different speakers.

Most problems are actually caused because of Windows being a stupid operating system.

That's why.

Burn the ISO on a CD and boot from it. (Termed as "Live CD") That's all.

I'll prefer you install it.

if its a image then you either have to burn it on a CD/DVD or make a bootable pendrive..

you can use it live without installing. just for you safety donot click on anything which says install.

FFS .. dont install it.. just run it in live mode ... check if audio work or not.. if it does then its a windows problem, else its hardware problem

DO NOT INSTALL WITHOUT PROPER RESEARCH/KNOWLEDGE .. I AM WARNING YOU

No need to install it - first check your problem via Live Booting.

Nothing is more difficult than installing Windows after Linux. ;)

Use Unetbootlin

Or

Win32 Image Writer. (this Image Writer has always failed for me. ALWAYS.)

Click Test Sound. Ubuntu doesn't ship with MP3 codecs if you were thinking of playing an MP3.

^ Are you sure it has nothing to do with malware? It could be that some malware is corupting the drivers.

Have you tried reinstalling audio drivers?

In case of RMA, you will never get any 'spare' components for the time being.
