These type of problems with audio may be from a bad solder joint, or non 
soldered joint, or cracked solder joint.  If you tap the shaft of the 
volume control, does that restore the audio?   That could be a bad pot 
wiper, or a bad spot on the pot at the usual volume setting.  Control 
cleaner might help if sprayed into the pot.  (assuming a pot with open 
access like 2 watt non military pots.).

The other technique is to tap any wire interconnect jumpers, again 
looking for a bad connection.   Unplugging and replugging any jumpers 
with connectors clears many a volume problem.
