It looks like one solution to this is to install the "esound" package from Synaptic, which apparently is not installed by default.
Then my question is, if the installation of this esound is necessary to make the logout sound play, then why is it not installed by default during O/S installation ? Surely there has to be a better solution to this !!! -- No logout sound is played on both Gutsy and Hardy final release versions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/229245 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-session in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
