First you have to find the unlock button when you are in
Settings. You can for this navigate with Orca flat review. After
unlocking the option will appear for auto login.

Okay so, update, I now have a login sound! And that
worked. Of course I put the same file and a couple of different
locations within the smash USR slash are slash sounds directory,
as I wasn't sure exactly which subdirectory, it went into, but
regardless the sound plays. The issue I'm still having, is with
enabling auto log-in. I'm kind of wondering if it's using gdm,
and set up a light DM, all I have is at login, of course the
speak up comes up and talking, but there's a text box that says
enter your username, then I have to tap to password, enter that,
and I can either press enter there, or Tab 2 times until I get
to login. Those are my only options at that particular screen.
But because this is mate, I don't see it under control center
for example, details, or whatever. I'll have a look under
Administration again, and possibly the personal section. I went
ahead and installed gnome system tools, that did however give me
the ability to somewhat add / manage users and groups, but I
can't change Auto login or do not ask for a password. I can,
change my account type, which I did, it was originally custom I
changed it to administrator, but that didn't do anything. I have
a list with my username, and add, delete, change button for
username, a change button for account type, and a change button
for password. I'll try that, and then of course there's an
advanced button, help, and close. So, I'll play around and see
what I can't find. In the event it is using lightDM, instead of
Gdm, I'll find the configuration file, and comment out the
appropriate lines
Hi Tim,
I guess that it is similar with Ubuntu 18.04. If so go to
Settings > Detail > User account.
Find the button for Unlock where you will ask for your
password. Tab to the option for auto login and press
Enter.
Success.

Thanks! I'll post back and report my findings
or issues, I did have one other login related question,
I'm not sure if this is using gdm, or lightdm as its
display manager, but I'm wondering how to enable auto
log-in. I do see Administration under the settings
control center section, but I don't see anything about
users and groups, or login settings, or anything. I did
however install yesterday the mate desktop environment
extras package as well. So I'm assuming if it is, I have
to go under and comment out in the configuration file to
enable auto log-in.
Hi,
I use Ubuntu and the following did it for me:
Open startup applications
Tab to and press the Add button
you can type a name for this action
Tab to type or paste the command:
/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="desktop-login"
--description="GNOME Login"
Tab to the Add button, press Enter
Tab to the Close button and press Enter.
Success.

Hello all, so I haven't Debian on
this machine, I'm assuming it's the same if not
very similar, with Ubuntu, because when I Google
mate / Debian adding a login sound, most all of
the information that comes up, is either
cinnamon, or Ubuntu, nothing really to do with
Debian. And there is no checkbox or anything
under startup applications, to add a login
sound. So I'm wondering, how would I go about it
exactly. There is no desktop login / log out ogg
files under / USR / share slash sounds / mate.
