--- Comment #1 from David Jarvie <djar...@kde.org> --- I wonder if this problem is a KAlarm bug, or something else. I don't see why the screen lock status would have any effect on alarms being triggered. To check this, could you please try two things: 1) Set up a KAlarm command alarm which triggers at the same time as your audio command alarm, and which does something not audio related - for example writing something to a file. Check whether this runs successfully after the screen locks. Ideally, make a command alarm which first writes to a file and then plays the audio file. You can then see if the alarm has triggered, and whether only the audio part fails. 2) Set up a little script which executes a "sleep" for long enough for the bug to occur, and then executes the same command as the KAlarm alarm. Execute the script in a terminal window (not in KAlarm) and leave it running. Check whether it plays the audio file after your screen has locked. On a separate note, can you please raise a separate bug report about KAlarm no longer playing audio files other than .ogg ones, and attach an example of an audio file which does not work. Mention any error messages which are shown. This isn't something which has previously been reported. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
