No sounds from iPad Air

My 3 month old iPad Air is not making any sounds for games, Skype alerts or mail coming in or out i can only hear music and videos. It is not set to Mute. I have checked all my settings cannot find any thing. Can you give me any advice?

Found the problem.

How about letting us know the fix in case someone else has a similar problem.

It was my fault, i had accidentally turned the sound off in the pull down control centre . I often open that when i am scrolling for some thing, a pain actually.

If you go to Settings - Control Centre

You can turn off "Access Within Apps". That way you won't accidentally bring it up unless your on the home or lock screen.

HTH

Thank you very much for that, have done it now.
