Suddenly no sound, everything else looks normal

This morning I went to use my Wave as usual. After about 5 seconds the sound cut and I can’t get it to come back. Everything else looks and functions as normal. Any ideas what component suddenly died and how to fix it? Bose are no help … thanks!

@bmort time to take it apart and see what may have failed. Look for components that may have overheated, corroded or otherwise look damaged. Of course, make sure that all your "external stuff" like volume, connections etc is all still properly connected and set Bose Wave Radio AWR1-1W

Yes I'll take a look inside to see if anything is visually damaged. I've heard the battery can leak onto some important wires over time. If that's the cause of the failure I wish they'd not bothered to put a battery in the first place...
