If your Acer Chromebook CB5-132T-C8ZW is not playing any audio, the speakers may be broken and need repair.
The speakers are the part of the laptop that provides audio when an audio device is not plugged in. If the Chromebook has a non-functioning speaker, no sound will be produced from the laptop when a video is playing.
Before beginning, make sure the Chromebook is disconnected from any external power source; then press and hold the power button for at least five seconds prior to dismantling in order to release any stored energy that could potentially be harmful.
