This works for me in Windows 8.1 to fix this:
type "services" in the Windows search box
From the list of services, choose Windows Audio
Stop the service, then
Start the service
Sound now plays in Movie Maker.
No audio during playback in Movie Maker

If it works don't fix it right?
Anyway i have similar issues, i'll try it anyway.
