Yannick, this no longer appears to be a problem in Jaunty. I conducted the following test:
- Vanilla installation of Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04 64-bit with all updates to today installed. - Went to System->Preferences->Sound and then clicked on the Sounds tab. - Enabled the "Play sound effects when buttons are clicked" checkbox. - Confirmed that the default beep sound plays for the "Toggle button clicked" sound event in the Sound Preferences tool (but clicking on the triangle play button). - Changed the "Toggle button clicked" sound event to another sound (in this case, the "question.wav" file). - Confirmed that the new sound plays by clicking on the triangle play button. - Closed the Sound Preferences. - Logged out and then back in again. - Launched Ekiga (v3.2.0 as bundled with Jaunty). - Setup an account. Noted that the new question.wav sound did indeed play when I clicked on checkbox buttons. - Setup a Logitech Communicator STX webcam which includes a built-in mic. Ekiga automatically detected and setup the device for me. - Conducted an Echo Test call. I could hear the echo tester and was able to successfully record and hear back my own voice. - Further random changes in Sound Preferences did not appear to affect Ekiga. Repeated the above test with a Ubuntu Jaunty 32-bit installation in a Virtualbox VM with the same results, ie: no problems. As a side note, starting Ekiga with "pasuspender" appears to work fine as well. Conclusion: The problem that was originally raised by me with Hardy has been resolved in Jaunty (I never actually tested in Intrepid because I switched to Skype at that time). -- Audio device cannot be accessed by Ekiga when certain sound events are enabled in GNOME Sound Prefs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246996 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
