ActivePython 2.7.2.5 (ActiveState Software Inc.) based on
Python 2.7.2 (default, Jun 24 2011, 12:21:10) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import test.test_winsound
>>> test.test_winsound._have_soundcard()
False
>>> import winsound
>>> winsound.PlaySound('!"$%&/(#+*', winsound.SND_ALIAS |
>>> winsound.SND_NODEFAULT)
>>>
No exception raised. (No sound is played, either, FWIW.)
I like the approach taken by the method before test_alias_nofallback():
def test_alias_fallback(self):
# This test can't be expected to work on all systems. The MS
# PlaySound() docs say:
#
# If it cannot find the specified sound, PlaySound uses the
# default system event sound entry instead. If the function
# can find neither the system default entry nor the default
# sound, it makes no sound and returns FALSE.
#
# It's known to return FALSE on some real systems.
# winsound.PlaySound('!"$%&/(#+*', winsound.SND_ALIAS)
return
I suspect that'll solve all our problems ;-)
