There IS a blown fuse somewhere. Which fusebox did you check. There are probably 2 fuseboxes.

How did you check the fuses?

Did you try this with the ACC on or remove and physically look at any suspect leads, does the ACC go back to the ignition loom or via a fuse?
You might have burnt the cable back to the ignition. Or from the ignition to the fuse box(es)

Alarm and power locks mightbe on 1 circuit but the radio ACC definitely won't.
I think you're looking at at least 2 fuses.

Key has to be in and at least at ACC position for the radio, what in heaven's name makes you think you need the key in for locks and alarm?
Don't you operate them remotely?
