10.6.4 USB Pro Speakers (G4 Cube) don't work on Macbook Pro

I updated to 10.6.4 and my USB Pro Speakers (G4 Cube) don't work but they worked with 10.6.3. These speakers match this Macbook Pro beautifully and I'd like to get them working again.

System Preferences shows USB as an Output Source in Sound Preferences and I can turn the volume up and down but nothing comes out.

I created a new account, same issue. I even deleted com.apple.audio.SystemSettings.plist hoping that would fix it and nothing.

They still work as verified by my roommates machine that's running 10.6.3 :/

help?

MacBookPro5,1, Mac OS X (10.6.4)

I'll take the risk of beeing labeled as "dummie" because I need your help
I have to pairs of M7963 speakers. I have asorted Macs om OSX 10.6.5. The dont sound at all - and I miss them. I also hate throwing things away that could be used (And yes - I'm in love with their looks....)

I have used some time trying to figure out whats wrong. Since they used to work, and hasn't been treated badly and since they have sound in the headphoneconection I have come to the conclusion it must be a softwareproblem. And probably something related to OSX- uppgrade.

And so I found your thred here. I should probably be expected to fix this - with the information at hand. But I'm sorry, I cant. I love my Macs, and compared to most 49 year old women I'm probably rather insightfull. But my knowledge of the "lingo" is limited

So please - if someone can try to explane what I have to do, step by step I'll be most gratefull. I know it would take some time to write it down, but it would mean a lot to me
