Public bug reported: It seems there is no audio feedback (beep) to assist in typing with a11y features enabled. The audio file to play ("bell" named sound) is installed (both ubuntu and freedesktop sound themes).
## Steps to reproduce 1) Open System Settings > Universal Access 2) Go to Typing tab 3) Turn ON Slow Keys switch 4) Activate "Beep when a key is ... accepted" 5) Focus test text entry and press (and hold) a key on keyboard ## Expected result The systems should beep when the key press is accepted and the letter appears on screen ## Current result No sound ## Additional info *Same issue for other beep related options in Styky, Slow and Bound keys. * It seems a Ubuntu only issue, 'cause the same feature in Fedora 17 works fine (and it seems there are no special differences between Fedora's and Ubuntu's a11y/sound related values for GSettings keys). * Release: 12.04 * Package version: 3.4.1-0ubuntu1.1 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: gnome-settings-daemon 3.4.1-0ubuntu1.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-24.37-generic 3.2.14 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-24-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu7 Architecture: amd64 Date: Sat May 19 01:08:18 2012 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Beta amd64 (20120327.1) SourcePackage: gnome-settings-daemon UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug precise -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1001490 Title: No beep for sticky, slow, and bounce keys features To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1001490/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
