What frequency is the osc~ set to?  Is it out of the range of  
hearing?  If you didn't give it a creation argument and you don't  
send it a frequency via its inlet you end up (I think) with a freq of  
0.  (If this is the case, for the love of Benji, turn down your  
speakers before correcting the problem:)

vcf~, being a filter, won't give you anything unless you're feeding  
it a signal.
