[Bug 360147] Re: gnome-sound-properties does not play all sound effects
The interface described here has been rewritten/changed which deprecate the issue.

[Bug 360147] Re: gnome-sound-properties does not play all sound effects
I've been having some of the same problems as the rest of you. When I started making changes to the event sounds in system->preferences->sound: sound tab, my theme was blank, then changed to "custom." None of my settings would stick, and the preview buttons would only preview the default sounds for each item. I did not experience jlaroche's problem of only the login event sound playing. After much google-searching, I found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libcanberra/+bug/347537, which describes a workaround where you have to change your theme to "ubuntu" to get settings to stick. My sound changes now stick, even after reboots and logouts. Hope this works for everybody else...

[Bug 360147] Re: gnome-sound-properties does not play all sound effects
So it seems that this is "not a priority" although many people confirm that sounds simply DO NOT WORK. Again, this is not a matter of sounds not being set by default in shipped version of Ubuntu. Rather, this is a matter of sounds not being played when their respective events are triggered... or in simple terms: Most of the sound events simply don't work. -- gnome-sound-properties does not play all sound effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360147 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 confirm the bug, I get the exact same symptoms as jlaroche on Jaunty. I investigated after I realized I wouldn't get sound alerts for new email in evolution. -- gnome-sound-properties does not play all sound effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360147 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
[Bug 360147] Re: gnome-sound-properties does not play all sound effects
This is tied to a much larger issue that I wish wasn't brushed over by so many when i inquire about it. Just as the original stated, on my System (Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit) the following sounds do not play, even if you customize them: -Window maximized -Window unmaximized -Window minimized -New e-mail -Empty Trash -Long action -Battery warning Whats more, NO SOUND EVENTS PLAY except "Login". Even the sounds that I customize which do play when I click on the play icon within System --> Preferences --> Sound will not play during their assigned event. So again, a number of sounds don't play within System --> Preferences --> Sound, and customized sounds won't play when the correct event is triggered ("New e-mail", "Logout", "Empty trash", etc.). -- gnome-sound-properties does not play all sound effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360147 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
[Bug 360147] Re: gnome-sound-properties does not play all sound effects
I agree with Sebastien that this should not be a priority. While we are talking about changes to sound effects, I would like to express my opinion. I find that, in Jaunty, the locations for sound effects are decentralized as the user can change it from the Volume control panel/mixer and the Sound preferences. The user must also know that "Login window" admin utility contains the system wide sound effect like the GDM drums, and still contains sound options that it no longer manages. This disconnect could be very confusing to end users of Ubuntu. I would appreciate discussing usability concepts for centralized sound control with anyone willing to contribute. -- gnome-sound-properties does not play all sound effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360147 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

reopening, the issue happens only sometimes and the dialog is deprecated upstream, that's probably not going to be worked any time soon though but a good contributor task if somebody wants to look to the issue ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- gnome-sound-properties does not play all sound effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360147 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

> clicking on the play icon plays the sound This is the part that does not work for me, only on certain items. > what soundfile did you try? Like you, I used question.wav to test this. This is the ubuntu drums we usually get at the GDM longin prompt. I just tested it on new installation of the latest Jaunty daily image on different hardware. I still can reproduce this problem with some items, even after having customizing them. -Toggle button clicked -Window maximized -Window unmaximized -Window minimized -New e-mail -Empty Trash -Battery warning -Button Clicked still plays the old sound even after having been customized. -- gnome-sound-properties does not play all sound effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360147 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

Thank you but I don't confirm that: - start the dialog - select the "new e-mail" or "empty trash" line - click on default, select custom in the combo, select question.wav the question.wav is displayed in the next colum and clicking on the play icon plays the sound what soundfile did you try? is it displayed in the next column? ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- gnome-sound-properties does not play all sound effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360147 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
