That's answered in the second line of the spec table in the LM3886 data sheet:
... and in the first paragraph of the Application Section of the data sheet:
In other words, if you want the amplifier to amplify, you need to take it out of the MUTE state. That's done by drawing at least 500 uA through pin 8. If you also want good performance, you need to add Cm as well.

I don't see any C1 and C2 in your schematic. Are you referring to the supply bypass caps? You'll need at least 470 uF where the power enters the board and then a minimum of 10 uF || 100 nF at the IC pins. You can do better than that though.
