I am a relatively new Debian user. I had my system set up properly and
everything seemed to be working well. I used the Pithos front-end for
the pandora service (which I like fairly well, by the way) which caused
all of my audio notifications from the gnome system to stop. I no
longer get the sounds from the various parts of the system notifying me
of changes, i.e. icedove pops up a visual notification that I have
recieved new e-mail, but the sound that had been associated with that no
longer happens. This is not isolated to icedove. The system used to
make a sound when I changed the volume level using my mouse wheel which
no longer occurs either.
The audio on the system does work. I can play MP3 files through
Rhythmbox or other audio player. I can play movies with audio, etc. So
the audio sub-system of the computer is functional. It is just the
alerts that do not work. I went to the system settings and made sure
that alerts were turned on and the volume for them was turned up. They
were and it was. I adjusted both anyway, and this made no difference.
Basically none of the sounds coming from the operating system are
functional.
What should I look at/check to solve this problem. Again, I have been
able to isolate the problem as having started when I used the Pithos
package. I am using an older laptop system, an HP Pavilion dv9000
system, if that makes any difference.
Anyone with any information/help will be greatly appreciated.
