I'd have to look again, but I believe the problem is the table for sounds and events didn't seem to read properly. Again, it was a while ago when I looked and it might have changed under Leopard, but I think the actual event was not identified as you went down the table of sounds.

the system sounds dialog was fine when I looked at it.

     The sounds if you want to add your own would be put in the user/
library/sounds folder.  They can be .wav files.  I think you can
change some sounds in system preferences under sounds, but I have not
been able to figure out how accessible the process is.  For mail, the
sound for new mail is changed in mail preferences under the general tab.

the path:
/system/library/sounds
interestingly, there is a sounds folder in each library folder, but
nothing
in them.

well, you can change two of them that I know of, one is the sound
the system
makes for various things like hitting the rong keystroke and the new
mail
sound.  the sounds are in a folder called sounds.  I don't remember
the
exact path, but the format is .aiff.  If you create an .aiff file
and put it
in that folder, it becomes selectable

The sounds your computer makes during certain operations like the one
you hear when new mail arrives.

Listers I wanted to add sound schemes to my system sound alerts. Is
this a matter of making a short MP3 and placing it in a particular
folder? If so where can I locate this folder?
