Update on this issue: 1) Some .wav files still do not play in Ubuntu 9.04 when associated with a Gnome event, such as desktop login. Those same .wav files DO play when I hover the mouse over them in a Nautilus window. So this bug seems specific to what ever plays the file within Gnome events and not hovering the mouse over the same file in Nautilus.
2) I converted the Willy Wonka sound to .ogg format just now, and that plays properly at Gnome desktop login. Thus further confirmation that something is wrong with Gnome's ability to play some .wav files as Gnome event sounds. At least now I have a work-around. -- Ubuntu Hardy / Jaunty system sounds and some other audio files are not properly played https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/176898 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
