Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gdm
This is a very small problem, but something that's bothering me. The
very first things I do after a clean install of Ubuntu is to disable the
sound at the login window.
The problem is, when I start System -> Login Screen Settings, the "Play
login sound" setting is unchecked by default. I have to check and
uncheck it again to disable the sound. This was the case in Maverick too
and still in Natty.
It's really not a big problem, but may confuse new Ubuntu users. They start
Login Screen Settings to disable the sound at the login window only to see that
it is already unchecked and it will only confuse and frustrate them.
Therefore the "Play login sound" setting should be checked by default.
If there is a reason I don't get for the entry being unchecked by
default on purpose, with the sound playing at the login screen, someone
please elaborate. In that case, the settings are not obvious to me and
won't be to any new user.
