I am assuming you still have video which means your internet is still working.

I don't have Roku or Samsung so I don't know what settings are available but some things you might try:

- Did the Audio selection on the TV get changed to External Speakers that you don't actually have?
- Is there a mute button that might have been pressed accidentally?
- You could try unplugging the TV for 10 seconds (my Sony sometimes needs this)
- You could try unplugging the Roku for 10 seconds (my Firestick sometimes needs this though I've never had the problem you describe)
- You could try switching the TV input to Antenna. If the TV will show static and not just a blank screen then you could see if you get static through your TV speakers too. At least you would have an idea that the TV can still make sounds. (don't forget to switch the input back to your Roku)
