Is it possilble that you have your audio muted? In iMovie, select the clip with no audio and then click on the loudspeaker icon in the tool bar at the upper right of your screen. Is the Mute button selected? If so, de-select it. Now see if you have audio.


If the above does not solve it, try deleting preferences. Open iMovie while holding down the Option and Command keys and select to delete preferences in the box that appears. iMovie will open in a new library. Reopen your old library to get back to your projects.  Now see if you have audio. Deleting preferences is a safe procedure that will not cause data loss or disruption to your project.
