Re: [orca-list] Gnome 3.4 and Desktop Sounds

Hi Dave,

Yeah, I saw that. Unfortunately, I want to do more than just change
the alert sound. I use to be able to assign sounds for various things
such as login, logout, clicked, question, and things like that. Now,
it looks like someone at Gnome just decided to yank the sound themes
out for some unknown reason. In my opinion it really detracts from the
end user experience because the other leading operating systems Mac
and Windows have system sounds so why not Linux?
