Ok, I now understand how the "ding" and "african dums" sounds can currently be enabled/disabled (https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- media/+question/123085).
So I confirm my opinion : the user expects to find all sounds settings in the "Sound Preferences", even the "ding" one. So no need to change the current "Login screen" , but we should add in the "Sound Preferences" a link or way to activate/disactivate the "ding" sound. Technically, this could be integrated in the "Sound Preferences" (this particular sound would require administrator password to enable/disable it), OR this could also be a button opening the "Login screen" window (I guess this would be very simple to implement). -- Setting "No sound" in Sound Preferences does not disable GNOME Login Sound https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/597540 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-media in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
