Public bug reported: Test Case ---------
1. Open the Settings app. 2. Open Sound then choose a different Alert Sound at the bottom of the page. 3. Open a terminal/console app 4. Press the backspace key. 5. You should hear the chosen Alert Sound What Happens ------------ In my case, I always hear the default alert sound. This issue may have been previous reported in https://launchpad.net/bugs/1871320 In that bug, it seems like switching to the default then to a different alert sound changed the sound. Other Info ---------- Ubuntu includes a Yaru sound theme by default. Unlike other themes, Freedesktop.org sound themes are fairly rare in desktop Linux. The bug seemed to also happen to me if I built gnome-control-center without our sound theme patch. https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gnome-control- center/-/blob/ubuntu/master/debian/patches/ubuntu/sound-Add-a-button-to- select-the-default-theme.patch However, this feature did seem to work correctly for me on Debian Unstable even with gnome-control-center 43.
