Public bug reported:

I'm not hearing any alarm (audio sound) when there's a trigger (e.g.,
Timer reaches zero).

I see in the log:

No alarm sound -- utils.vala:391: Error playing sound: Invalid argument


$ gnome-clocks --version
Clocks 3.36.2

This is gnome-clocks installed on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS with snap, not apt.

$ snap list
Name                     Version                      Rev   Tracking         
Publisher         Notes
gnome-clocks             3.36.2+git4.0aaab08          261   latest/stable    
canonical✓        -

After this issue, I uninstalled the snap and installed gnome-clocks
package using apt.  The sound played just fine.  I then removed gnome-
clocks and re-installed the snap, and it worked as before (no sound).

This was reported by someone else, upstream:

- https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-clocks/-/issues/111
- https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vala/-/issues/995

"So apparently all is needed is to rebuild gnome-clocks using the latest
vala."
