...and here's the schematic...half of it anyway

the 6AT6 is the 1st audio level amp, it also serves as a bias clamper ( diode ) as this set is pre-AGC and has a " picture control" like my FADA, like someone mentioned above to test the audio out section, you can simply clip on to the center wiper of the volume control, and feed in any sine wave in the audible range, to test it. this will also insure that you are on the isolated side of the grid via the .01 cap , no risk of loading loading thing down hooking up to that point.

I'm not getting anything...even poking a screwdriver around and across the volume control's 3 terminals there's not a sound...no snap, crackle or pop...nothing. There isn't even a hum.

Isn't there 2 outputs on that knight (one audio one radio frequency)? There should be a fixed frequency audio output (something like 400Hz) that you can use to inject audio.
If there isn't an AF output on the Knight, do you have a junky (something won't be sad if you accidentally break it) radio or audio player (battery powered is preferable) with a working headphone or line output? You can make a cable that plugs into the output of your audio test source and has alligator clips on the other end. Put a roughly .1uF cap in series with the audio hot lead and feed that to the grid, clip audio ground to the chassis. Alternately if you want even simpler just use a roughly .1uF capacitor to connect the heater hot lead to the grid...All you'll get is 60Hz hum, but it's a simple method to use when you don't have test equipment or sacrificial audio gear on hand.

That should be a start point then in tracking down the lack of sound, even though the linked Rider's may or may not be exact to what you have, the voltages shown should be close enough to give you a hint of the problem.
be it a bad tube, or resistor or cap or what ever. the voltages on the 6K6 and 6AT6 should be pretty close to matching what you see in the schematic.

that 1k feeding power to the plate should be a rather big one, 5w or larger, and they tend to fry easily.
