I am also seeing the same with Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric. It is almost exactly the same with steps to reproduce and results. Also when I login to guest the login sound works there. I also tried with the Oneiric Ocelot live CD. 1. After booting to desktop sound was muted in the top panel speaker icon. 2. Opened the Sound Settings from the speaker icon, unmuted. 3. Selected diffierent sounds in Choose an Alert Sound, they all sounded and were audible. 4, Logged out 5. Logged in. Result no login sound. Diferences with my setup (doesn't play in Live CD) is: pressing tab in terminal causes alert sound to work there. No other system sounds play though either in actual Ubuntu install or Live CD
