Right there is your problem.  I was using a CVS build of evolution 1.5
with Mandrake cooker (pre-gnome-2.6) and it always played the
notification sound (too often - like when moving mails from folder to
folder).  Since Cooker updated to GNOME 2.6, I've lost my notification.
The sound daemon starts up, but no mail notification.

I posted a question on the Mandrake Cooker mailing list, but have not
seen a response.
