[Bug 406998] New: Login and Shutdown sounds work for "root" but not for regular user,
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=406998 Summary: Login and Shutdown sounds work for "root" but not for regular user, Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Sound AssignedTo: tiwai@novell.com ReportedBy: jimomura@pathcom.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Customer Compaq Presario V2570ca. I changed the settings in "Application Browser" -> "Sound" from "Autodetect" to "ALSA Mixer" and the login and shutdown sounds work reliably in "root". I tried the same thing as a regular user and it did not help. When logged in as a regular user, the sound "test" buttons for the various sounds (like the "Login" and "Shutdown" and "Alert" sounds) are not doing anything. However, as a "regular user", sound out of the "Flash-Player" is working properly through "nspluginwrapper". I have not tried the "Real Player 10" sound yet. I checked the permissions of the .wav files in "/usr/share/sounds" and they are all set to "read", so that does not seem to be a problem. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Jim: I'm not saying we should wait. But it's rather low priority compared to some other bugs, even when you only look at sound-related bugs.
Understood. I was half joking. Everything I said was true, but having looked at what there is currently I know that you guys have plenty to do. . . .
And it's hard to know if PA changes things about this in 11.0, but Rodrigo should know.
I do not have time to look at the sources myself, but I have a feeling this is not a binary problem so much as structural -- more the fault of the "startup" scripts and daemons. But without spending days, which I do not have, I can only guess. But if this is true, then there might be some "leverage" to this bug. That is to say, solving it might help solve other bugs. Then again, that hope often turns out empty too. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I am looking at:
"/root/gnome2/session"
and it has a line
"6,RestartCommand=ggreeter --once"
Where and what is "ggreater". Is that a script that runs the startup sound?
ggreeter is the application that shows a window the first time you log in. It has nothing to do with sound. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
