Quoting Andrew in comment 34, "Redirecting focus to the actual bug filed here:
There is a file called 'libcanberra-logout-sound.sh' in /usr/share/gnome/shutdown that is meant to be run on shutdown. The reason the file is not played is that the piece of code that is meant to be in gnome-session to run all files in the /usr/share/gnome/shutdown directory is not there (it was forgot). Upstream is a patch someone made to fix it and the nautilus developers suggested some changes to the patch. This bug needs someone to modify the patch as required." What's happening with this patch? I've checked the upstream bug report in Gnome (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=528812) and there hasn't been any activity since 2009. There was talk of 'cleaning the patch up', but there hasn't been a resubmission. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Confirmed => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214370 Title: Logout/Shutdown Sound Not Working -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
