this is likely the inverter/power-supply board that has the inverter section that has failed and you have changed the input to an unused one so the audio has quit: http://www.shopjimmy.com/samsung-bn44-00264a-power-supply-backlight-inverter.htm

Turn the set on in a very dark room with a very bright flashlight. Point the light into the screen and press the menu to see that the video is actually there.
