Woohoo! Thanks David!! Although this is a workaround, there is no problem with it, it does the desired behavior (i.e. plays the shutdown/logout sound on logout and shutdown) and conforms with all the necessary configuration (i.e. if in Preferences > Sound you have sounds disabled, it will not play).
I shall create a debdiff with a patch, in the mean time, will people try it out and comment if the workaround doesn't work for them (make sure in Sound > Preferences, you have the Ubuntu theme selected and the alert volume is loud enough). -- Logout/Shutdown Sound Not Working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214370 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-session in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
