Hi,
suddenly, after upgrading to 8.0 I got sound issues on my iPad Air. No system sounds (Mail, typing, etc) and no game sounds. Youtube, Podcasts, Music, Videos sound is working correctly. No idea. 8.1 didn't help.

iPad Air, iOS 8.1
If you lost 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 control center if you are running iOS 7 or iOS 8. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.

Finally it was the lock-switch, unbelievable. I'm rollin my eyes and have nothing else to say...*sigh*
Another thing to try
general settings - sound mono switch on off
this worked for me, iPad air 2 when playing with Bluetooth screwed it up
Thanks! No need to replace my iPad air 2.
Thanks for your suggestion. I have no idea why what you suggested worked but it did. My headache is going away!
Ipad Air 2 , no sound internal Speaker when Play iTunes/ youTube , but plug in HEADPHONE = sound is Hear (ok)
that mean AUDIO circuit is OK, but software problem. checking below.
in YouTube video --> AIRPLAY = headphone only ( no other OPTION)
the correct must be AIRPLAY = " speaker Ipad"
for now it is a BUG , APPLE will Fix it later.
to FIX this problem , must do " RESTORE IPAD"
connect ipad to Macbook (usb) Then Open Itunes
1- do " Back up" ( 1 minutes if you did backup before)
2- do " Restore" ( 3 minutes only)
this will set IPAD air 2 back to "ORIGINAL MFG DEFAULT"
***** Congratulation= fix , AUDIO for internal speaker is working *******
now play youtube= airplay= speaker iPad , & play itunes = ok
Note: it is very nice . if you have set up cloud & same apple ID , everything will restore back include , all APP, iTunes SONG/ video
you do not need to reinstall APP , or SONG in iTunes etc...
APPLE made this is perfect . SAVE lot time
This worked!! Thanks Demo. Didn't think of that,
It also helped me. An easy solution. Thanks.
