Lost System Sounds

All of a sudden I no longer have any of the normal system sounds. Nothing
works within any applications BUT if I go to Control Panel and Sounds and
Audio devices then the sounds tab I can click any of the sounds and click
test and I can hear them. I've also checked all my applications, excel,
word, outlook, etc. and sounds are all enabled. Any suggestions?
