Panasonic TC-P42X5 No Audio

[PMKS]

Panasonic TC-P42X5 I purchased new in the box 2012, barely used.

Few months ago, both HDMI inputs stopped working, used Component Video/RCA Audio Inputs until those stopped working as well, nothing else was wrong with the TV.

Purchased an "A" Main board with warranty and installed it, restored the inputs and the video, but no audio.... Audio previously had no issues.
I reset the tv settings to Factory Settings, the volume "bar" on the tv moves when the volume is adjusted, tried both HDMI inputs, tried the RCA audio inputs, tried different HDMI cables, tried two different Blu-Ray players & a DirecTV receiver, checked audio connections on the board ( the speaker wires both come right off the Main board )

Figured the Replacement Board was bad, exchanged it for a new one. Same issue, this has me stumped. What else am I missing here? Yes, the replacement board(s) were the exact model and suffix as the original.

Thanks in advance for any advice and help

Did you check the speakers? Look at the speaker connector on the board. Sometimes they push-out and disconnect from the board.

Yes, I checked the speaker connecter plug on the main board and the speakers many many times.

Is the speaker "AMP" actually on the main board? or is there another board providing speaker power to the main board?

what is very odd, is that everything else works video/inputs perfectly, and that the sound previously worked.

Here are some pictures:
