Public bug reported: Binary package hint: libcanberra-gtk-module
As initially detailed in some of the comments in #258703, selecting the "Play sound effects when buttons are clicked" has no effect. The instructions in this mailing list post (https://tango.0pointer.de/pipermail/libcanberra- discuss/2008-July/000021.html) need to be followed to enable libcanberra gtk integration, which will properly enable gtk-sound effects. Quoted here: "...Packagers! If you package libcanberra, make sure to include a script like this one in your package: <snip> #!/bin/sh if [ -z "$GTK_MODULES" ] ; then GTK_MODULES="libcanberra-gtk-module" else GTK_MODULES="$GTK_MODULES:libcanberra-gtk-module" fi export GTK_MODULES </snip> This script should be sourced in each Gnome session and will enable the libcanberra gtk module for all gtk programs. In fedora we install it as "libcanberra-gtk-module.sh" in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/. I assume other distributions have similar directories. ..." I think this is missing from the ubuntu libcanberra packages, which is preventing the gtk sound effects from working properly. ** Affects: libcanberra (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- No sound effects play when "play sound effects when buttons are clicked" is enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/273507 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
