For a lenny install of Debian, gnome-audio was not installed, after manualy
installing gnome-audio, "System
Sounds" from menu "System -> Preferences -> Sound -> Sounds tab -> "Enable
software sound mixing (ESD)" and
"Play system sounds" are both enabled, however selecting the "Play" button for
any of the system sounds
does not produce any sound.
If I install other packages like esound and libesd-alsa0, then I can get sound
to work, but this affects
the working of sound for other systems just as sun-java package.
I believe that not all the required packages to support sound are being
installed (just as gnome-audio is
not installed during the debian (lenny) installation.
This issue also occurred in Debian etch 4.0 r6 but the behavour after
installing libesd-alsa0 was slightly
different.
If this issue is not with a required package not being installed, then it may
be with a faulty sound module
?
