GNOME lacks audible feedback?



Hi,

Yesterday I booted back to Windows XP on my notebook. It came
preinstalled, but I only booted it 4 or 5 times, I think.

After spending about a few hours in Delphi, Corel Draw and Winamp, I
went back to Debian GNOME 2.6 and just noticed that GNOME barely lacks
audible feedback.

In Windows XP, a bunch of predefined events (menu popup, menu item
selection, dialog boxes, scrolling) generate audible feedback so you
know you really clicked it.

Though it's not a requirement, it would be fun a lot to have metathemes
cover sound themes too, a la WinXP. Industrial theme, for example, would
provide "industrial sounds" for events, and Gorilla would provide
"Gorilla sounds" and so forth.

BTW, while talking about the sound stuff, I really think there's a nasty
bug somewhere in the underlying drivers or players causing ugly audio
quality. I'm no music expert but I can clearly distinguish between
played-on-Linux and played-on-windows quality of the very same mp3 file.
Anyone else?
