This has annoyed me for a long time, also. It particularly affects first startup of the computer. Steps to reproduce: 1. Set your volume up reasonably high before shutdown, or otherwise ensure the volume levels are high in alsa at boot time 2. Reboot the machine 3. Log in 4. Arggh! The ubuntu

The attention sound is not happening for me under the same conditions with Karmic. Actually, I don't seem to be getting any attention sound at all at the moment, but neither do I see any repeated messages in the auth log. It looks like it isn't a problem for me under Karmic. -- Login attention

Ok, this is for my own benefit (and Mark's as he is having the same problem as noted above) as much as anyone's. I put a strace on various gdm processes while this was going on. The strace shows read and writes consistent with the initial login as user 1, and the final login to switch back to

Ok. I have a workaround in code, and remain confident that the root cause is switching virtual terminals while a key is being pressed or has just been pressed causing a keyboard repeat. I modified gdmopen.c and getvt.c. Wherever I saw the ioctl to switch virtual terminals (VT_ACTIVATE) I added

Ok, may I suggest setting back to Unconfirmed status? I am still able to reproduce this reliably. I experimented with pressing Tab instead of Enter at the gdm login prompt. Enter still puts the login cycle into continuous repeat. However Tab only plays the sound once as gdm returns to the login

Yes, as noted in the bug report. The trigger is user 1 logging out back to gdm while user 2 still has a session going. When user 2 logs in through gdm back to their running session. This has happened reliably for me, 100% of the time so far after a small number of attempts. My auth.log

Are your referring to bug 237429? As noted, my triggering conditions are different but I would be happy for these to be investigated together. 237429 seems to indicate this happens on a normal fast user switch, which is not my bug. Note that the information in this bug (373961) suggests that gdm
