Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdm

In the tab "accessibility" of the application "gdmsetup" (gdmsetup is
what I have to write on the terminal to display the application I'm
talking about), it is possible to configure the greeter to play some
custom sounds, related to some tipical event, such as "access
successfully" or "login window ready" and "Access failed".

Starting from my new Intrepid update, I can play any kind of sound and
video using Rhythmbox, VLC, SMplayer and so on,... but...no sound plays
from the gdmsetup: from that package it's impossible for me to configure
and execute any sounds.

The GDMsetup has a sound-preview-mode, that, when pressed, do not play
any sound (I tried with different file format), but if I try to play the
same sound from outside the GDMsetup, using Rhythmbox for istance, I can
perfectly play that sound.

this is my PC config:
OS: Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid) 
Kernel: 2.6.27-7-generic
Gnome 2.24.1
RAM: 1000 MiB
Processor 0: Intel Core 2 Duo CPU   E4500 @ 2.20Ghz

Total free HD space: 170 Gib
Dual Boot PC:

/dev/sdb (250 GiB) ntfs

Best regards
