The bell *does* work if I use Konsole; it sounds almost like a sonar echo. I'd like to have the file play in the Gnome terminal too, tho.

I just opened a konsole, the KDE-hacked xterm, IIRC. I had the BEL set to system bell and as with terminals, vi/vim/and other bell-type things just flashed the screen at me. I do have full-screen flash set up in my Gnome menu settings. Nothing I can do gets the .WAV bell to work under gnome. Just guessing here, but if you have your .WAV bell set up via the KDE system notifications, it may well be that knotify cannot output any sounds in your GNOME session because artsd isn't running. Alternatively to running artsd as part of your GNOME session, you can set up knotify to use an external utility to play notifications, either via the KDE Control Center or by editing ~/.kde/share/config/knotifyrc (by filling in the External player line and setting Use Arts to false).
