That's what I do. In the OnEvent tab under the options dialogue in Licq, you
can specify a command to run when events occur, along with event-dependent
parameters to pass to the command. I set the command to a shell script called
icq_event (attached), and use the parameters to pass a sound file to play.

The icq_event script uses the shade_window script (both attached). The HOME
and PATH variables at the top of the icq_event script might need modifying.

Hope that helps,
