I have sound for movies, music, Skype, youtube (directly)... but not when I click on a Youtube video in Facebook. My sound volume is up, and in FB settings it is turned on. Any help would be appreciated...

I don't know if you are using the FaceBook app or this is happening in Safari, but whichever it is - close that app and reboot your iPad and see if sound returns.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus ➖ sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Thank you, followed your wonderful directions to the tee, and, it didn't work. I am using the FB app.
any other suggestions would be very much appreciated 🙂

I think I just realized what the problem could be. System sounds are muted. Read my explanation of how system sounds work.
If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.
it worked! I now get the sounds from watching youtube videos embedded in FB! Thank you!
