Unfortunately after reading through the posts I also installed the

the fix.

Way to fix bugs - just let the report expire!
this has been and still is in the last 3-4 versions of ubuntu - I'm
using a plugin as a work-a-round I have come to the concussion that this
is actually a gnome theme problem
Given that there is no serious official interest - I've become very
I thought that this would have been fixed as it is something that new
users are likely to encounter and give them a low opinion of the
software. On the few occasions that I got a sound to play correctly, it
then started playing every time a dialog box was presented by Evolution,
at which point I
I can't believe I'm encountering this in 10.10. Anyway, post #5 is a
clean, easy work around.
There are a load of wav files in
/usr/lib/openoffice/basis3.2/share/gallery/sounds/ You can also use:
$ locate *.wav
to identify some on your hard disk.

Further to my last comment, this stopped working shortly after I posted
that comment. I have since upgraded to 10.10 and notification still
doesn't work. There was also a time when the notification sound would
play for every dialogue box that evolution presented.

I did some more digging on this, and looking at the code for evolution
2.30.3, it uses libcanberra for playing the sounds. This is confirmed
by looking at the GNOME bug report that says that libcanberra was used
since 2.29.x. However, ldd shows that libcanberra is not a dependency
of the
Did even more digging, and the plugin shared object for mail
notification does depend on libcanberra so I suspect that my previous
comment was incorrect. Also, I just changed the sound in the mail
notification dialog box and it has started working again, so it might
have been fixed with the

I also had this problem, so I decided to use a script to play a wav file
using aplay. During my testing I found that aplay wouldn't play some of
my wav files with the following error:
aplay: test_wavefile:807: can't play WAVE-file format 0x0055 which is
not PCM or FLOAT encoded
Once I found one
Using Lucid 10.04. No notification sounds.
Added this .wav file to /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/message.wav and changed
this key value
/apps/evolution/eplugin/mail-notification/sound-file in gconf-editor
It now works. Seems it does not like .ogg files.
Should be a simple fix the devs can do
Wojtek- your solution is the only one that has worked for me, many
thanks.
I hope that this bug can be fixed, it's a doozy!

Hi guys,
after I couldn't make this work, here's my dirty workaround for the
problem:
* Somewhere in your home directory (for me it's ~/Programs/) create a
new file, for example:
touch play_email_sound
* Edit the file with your favourite editor and put this in (replace the
path of course):
#!
1) I have just updated to Ubuntu 9.04 and Evolution 2.26.1.
2) I now find that I also can't get the mail notification sound to work.
3) I have set Edit/Preferences/General to Play a sound, When New Mail Arrives
In.
4) I have set Edit/Plugins/Mail Notification/Configuration/Mail Notification to
I have found the explanation to my problem. The notification sound
doesn't work for emails sent from: and to: my Default email address,
which is what I was doing to check for sound. It works fine for emails
from any other address.

I also got it to work by changing the sound in the plugin configuration.

I've found a workaround for this one. First off, the sounds setting in
System-Preferences-Sound for New Email Notification does nothing. I
don't know why. However, if you go into Evolution and go to
Edit-Plugins and find the Mail Notification Plugin, you can change its
configuration. From there,
this work round does not work for me on intrepid ibex
neither the sound theme or plugin play a wav when a mail arrives
although selecting beep in the plugin works with the test button this also
does not work
when receiving a new mail
The plugin was previously working.

It worked for me. I mapped the sound to a location in /usr/share/sounds, and
made sure it was a .wav file, and for the first time this is issuing sounds
for incoming mail!
could have sworn i tried that before...
