Can anyone give me a clue as to why, on one of my boxes, system sounds only work when the Windows kdeTheme is chosen? My other boxes have sys sound with other themes, but this one requires the Windows--which I hate. And, I can't get system sound in Gnome at all--separate problem, but maybe related. Whenever I try to configure system sounds in Gnome nothing seems to happen--until I close the toolbox, then I segfault (gnomecc has crashed--with different error numbers every time). CDplayer works fine, though. I suspect that a GnomeTheme buggered my system when I installed it, but can't be exactly sure when it happened (I think I had system sounds in Gnome, on this box, at one time). But I've never gotten the kde sounds to work, except with the Windows Theme. Which is o.k. with me, I like Gnome better anyway--but not managing to fix it is still driving me crazy.
