Hi Onyeibo,which theme have you installed?I tried some but nothing.If I send a notification with this commandnotify-send "SUMMARY" "BODY"I get no sound!I'm still looking for a workaround!I think that it's a terrible limitation of gnome-shell, that I love for the rest...TIADonatoOn Wed, Dec 2, 2015 at 4:39 AM, Onyeibo Oku <twohotis gmail com> wrote:On Mon, 2015-11-30 at 18:54 +0100, Donato Marrazzo wrote:I see...And what about to handle a default sound? When the application does not specify it?Thank youI suppose that depends on the sound-theme. If the active sound-theme provides audio for generic notifications, you should hear one.I get audible notifications for incoming mails, alerts etc. but that is because I have a sound-theme that provides those.We were enthusiastic about packaging comprehensive themes for fedora but that adventure was dampened by the realities of life (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Sound )RegardsOnyeibo (twohot)On Mon, Nov 30, 2015 at 5:38 PM, Florian Müllner <fmuellner gnome org> wrote:On Mon, Nov 30, 2015 at 2:29 PM, Donato Marrazzo<donato marrazzo gmail com> wrote:> I cannot hear any sound when a notification appear.> Is it working as designed?Yes. The freedesktop notification spec has optional hints to specify asound when the notification is displayed[0]. We support those hints,so if a sound is specified, and sounds are not disabled for thatparticular application in notification settings, we play the sound -if either of those is not the case, then there won't be a sound (mostlikely the former - in my experience, there are very few apps that dospecify a sound with notifications)._______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list
