You are partially correct. On my Gutsy install (I think installed from the desktop CD, as opposed to the Alternate CD) the esound program was NOT shown as installed but the esound common was shown as being installed. As soon as I installed the esound program on the Gutsy computer and restarted the next time around the logout sound worked perfectly.
On my Hardy installation on a separate computer (it was installed from the Alternate CD version - final release of Hardy) the pulse-audio- esound-compat WAS installed by the logout sound did NOT play properly. As soon as I attempted to install the esound (which at the same time uninstalled the pulse-audio-esound-compat), and then restarted the computer, the next time around the logout sound worked perfectly. Let me know if you need more info. You might want to take a look at this Ubuntu forum post which was started by BigSilly. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=790181 Thanks. -- No logout sound is played on both Gutsy and Hardy final release versions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/229245 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
