Package: debian-installer
Version: lenny
Severity: important



-- System Information:
Debian Release: 5.0
  APT prefers testing
  APT policy: (500, 'testing')
Architecture: i386 (i686)

Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core)
Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)
Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash

For a lenny install of Debian, gnome-audio was not installed, after manualy 
installing gnome-audio, "System 
Sounds" from menu "System -> Preferences -> Sound -> Sounds tab -> "Enable 
software sound mixing (ESD)" and 
"Play system sounds" are both enabled, however selecting the "Play" button for 
any of the system sounds 
does not produce any sound.

If I install other packages like esound and libesd-alsa0, then I can get sound 
to work, but this affects 
the working of sound for other systems just as sun-java package.

I believe that not all the required packages to support sound are being 
installed (just as gnome-audio is 
not installed during the debian (lenny) installation.

This issue also occurred in Debian etch 4.0 r6 but the behavour after 
installing libesd-alsa0 was slightly 
different.

If this issue is not with a required package not being installed, then it may 
be with a faulty sound module 
?
