Hi there, @jcpdk2. 👋
Sorry for the sound issues after upgrading. I understand how frustrating that can be. In the meantime, I moved your post over to this existing thread to keep everything organized: Desktop: No Sound
Sound Controls:
Pandora has a separate volume control. Make sure it isn't all the way down, the volume control is located in the bottom right corner of the Pandora page.
Make sure you are plugged into the main speaker outputs of your sound card. Sometimes there are two outputs. Pandora may only play from one of them on machines with some sound drivers. Updated drivers have fixed this for many listeners.
If on a Windows machine, make sure that the "Wave Balance" volume is set at least 50% on your advanced volume control window. This is accessible by double-clicking the speaker in the lower-right corner of your screen.
I would also recommend checking out @MOHLovesAlaska's suggestions in the accepted solution here.

Web Browser:
Unfortunately, we don't support the DuckDuckGo browser, so I won't be able to offer steps to troubleshoot your web browser. Please use one of our supported browsers for listening to Pandora, like Firefox, Chrome, Safari, or Microsoft Edge. This will also let us know if the issue is browser-related. Another option is to use the Pandora Desktop App.
I hope this helps. Feel free to let us know how it goes. 🎧
