apport information
** Tags added: apport-collected oneiric running-unity
** Description changed:
Steps to reproduce:
1) Open a terminal, dconf-editor, and the Sound Configuration window.
2) Navigate to org.gnome.desktop.sound in dconf-editor. The value for the key
named "theme-name" should be "ubuntu"
3) In the terminal, run the command:
/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="dialog-question"
You will hear the expected "drum beat" question sound.
4) Click on "Bark" in the Sound Configuration window to change the alert
sound.
a) You will notice that the theme-name in dconf-editor has changed to
"_custom"
5) In the terminal, run this command again:
/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="dialog-question"
You will hear no sound and see the message "Failed to play sound: File
or data not found"
6) Change the alert sound back to "Default" in the Sound Configuration window.
a) You will notice that the theme-name in dconf-editor has changed to
"freedesktop"
7) In the terminal, run this command again:
/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="dialog-question"
You will hear no sound and see the message "Failed to play sound: File
or data not found"
In order to get Ubuntu's sound theme back, you have to manually change
the value of theme-name in dconf to "ubuntu".
Expected behavior:
1) When changing alert sound back to "Default," the value of "theme-name" in
dconf should revert to "ubuntu", not "freedesktop".
2) When choosing an alert sound other than "Default", users will not
reasonably expect that many of their other system sounds will disappear. Only
the alert sound itself should change.
- More ideally, the selection should be among entire sound *themes*, like
- the moblin theme which is available in the repos.
