Artsd is probably running and locking /dev/dsp. Check with the command artsshell, then enter 'status' at the prompt.
If you want the notification, you could start thunderbird with 'artsdsp thunderbird'

Thanks for the quick reply Aveek.
When I do artsshell and then status I am getting the message:
status
server status: suspended real-time status: real-time server buffer time: 53.288 ms buffer size multiplier: 1 minimum stream buffer time: 53.288 ms auto suspend time: 5 s audio method: alsa sampling rate: 44100 channels: 2 sample size: 16 bits duplex: half device: default fragments: 10 fragment size: 940
I tried to call thunderbird with the command artsdsp thunderbird, but got the error message that it can only be called with a binary. I checked and saw that thunderbird is a start script.
Is it possible to do the necessary adjustments in the script to get sound going?

might be a stupid idea!! ......... check the volume - keep it high .. might be able to hear the short beep sound .. :-) I am using 10.1 with 1.5 thunderbird, never thought of sound notification!! - as you have mentioned ... found .. it works for me. Simply "Alsasound" should able to play.. Thanks and regards, Saugata.
