Is it hooked up to speakers or a headphone?
Can you hear the sound in the trim menu?
Did you correctly assign a sound to a pad in the pgm menu?
Are you using the right bank?

I just got the XL and had the same problem. I fixed it by changing the midi to drum1 underneath where it has TR:XX-Track-XX. Look at the second box below on the main screen.

It should look something like this...

Tr:01-Track-01
S: DRUM1: OFF

Not like this...

Tr:01-Track-01
S: MIDI : OFF
