Bug ID: 432577
Summary: Feature request: Play sound when USB device is
attached
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: philipp.reichm...@gmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
KDE does not play a sound when a new USB device is connected.
New users coming from Windows or Gnome are used to notification sounds upon USB
connection/disconnection. These users may find it irritating that there is no
sound and no way to configure it. Having a notification sound can also help
with identifying USB connection/disconnection issues.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Plug in a USB device
2. Nothing happens
OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens.
EXPECTED RESULT
It would be nice to hear a sound when a USB device is connected
A second step would be a KNotification popup indicating the device.
There are regularly users switching from GNOME or Windows and asking for this:
