I've scanned the list of packages I removed but I can't see a likely

which is not my case.

Can anyone tell me which plasma module I need to install to hear
notifications again?

Again, the hardware and low-level drivers are fine: it's just plasma that's
missing a component.


I have the kde-plasma/plasma-meta installed here, although I do not run the
plasma desktop.  It has the USE flag pulseaudio enabled, which I suspect is
needed to get things like desktop notifications working:

[+ C] pulseaudio
kde-plasma/plasma-meta: Install Plasma applet for PulseAudio volume
management
[+  ] (5) 5.13.5 [gentoo]
[+  ] (5) 5.14.3-r1 [gentoo]

For what it's worth, I don't have PulseAudio at all on my system and plasma 
still does audible notifications. I think Dale may be closer to the 
solution with the suggestion about kmix.

Could you be missing Kmix?  Since it controls volume/mute settings, I'd
think it would be needed, maybe anyway.

[gentoo-user] Plasma sound devices

Hello list,

Over the last few days I've trimmed my plasma setup - to slightly below the 
minimum, by which I mean that sound notification has stopped working. I can 
hear streamed radio, but the plasma control panel doesn't show any devices so 
I don't hear notifications.

I've scanned the list of packages I removed but I can't see a likely suspect, 
and google just returns results about having no sound at all, which is not my 
case.

Can anyone tell me which plasma module I need to install to hear notifications 
again?

That should have been the latter, of course.

 No version, just a long list of files.

As long as everything works ... I'd like to avoid this on a productive
system that is hundreds of kilometers away.

But yes, I agree basically.

Since no one else has come up with anything less kludgy, and I assume you
have already tried reinstalling systemd, I can only think of unmerging
and re-emerging it, after making a package with quickpkg.
