Re: [Bug 145866] Re: system sounds do not play
If you are running Ubuntu hardy or earlier, if esd/pulseaudio are not running, you don't hear any event sounds. Unfortunately thats a limitation of the GNOME sound architecture for Ubuntu hardy and earlier. -- system sounds do not play https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145866 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm. Pulseaudio is disabled, and my login sounds don't work. I can't hit "play" in gnome-sound-properties. Nothing is send to stdout, but nothing is played. aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav works, no errors, and plays the sound, but I don't hear it when I log in.

Same problem here. I tried to use sounds from gnome-look. Sound for login and logout doasn't work any more and button in gnome-sound- properties works only once. If I try to press that button again I don't get any sounds any more. There was the same problem in Gutsy I use Hardy now.

[Bug 145866] Re: system sounds do not play
I'm having a similar issue. I found this bug after looking through the forums, and it seems my problem could be related. My problem started when I installed Monkey Bubble and had no sound in the game. This turned out to be a common problem. After following some advice in an UbuntuForums thread to install "pulseaudio." I still couldn't get sound from Monkey Bubble, but nothing else other than Amarok that I tested produced sound. I uninstalled "pulseaudio" and the one or two other packages it had brought with it, including "pulseaudio-esound-compat". Now I get no system sounds, no game sounds...the only thing that seems to produce sound is Amarok. When I run "frozen-bubble" from a command line, part of the error is the same as one above: [SDL Init] ALSA lib pcm.c:2105:(snd_pcm_open_conf) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so [Graphics] Warning: can't initialize sound (reason: No available audio device). After removing and reinstalling alsa-base (and dependent packages), the error message stayed the same. Seeing "pulse" in the missing module made me wonder if I should now try reinstalling "pulseaudio". After doing so, the frozen-bubble error message changed to: [SDL Init] *** PULSEAUDIO: Unable to connect: Connection refused [Graphics] Is it worse? Is it related?
