There are two ways that system sounds can be muted.


Settings>General>Use Side Switch to>Mute. If you have the iPad set that way, then the switch above the volume button controls mute and unmute.


If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation, the mute switch is a software switch in the control center. Swipe up from the bottom of the iPad to get to the Control Center and the Mute icon looks like a bell. It's in the row next to the half moon icon. If the bell is white, then system sounds are muted.
