--- Comment #3 from Alex <a...@laxu.de> --- (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #2) > AFAIK this is intentional as the pc speaker sound is often loud and > terrifying and horrible, especially when played through headphones. I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing. I'm talking about the little speaker inside PCs that can only make small beeps, doesn't even use a sound card, and didn't play in headphones before the update. Two main things that are annoying me now: - When I activate an audible bell, I now have a sort of "blip" sound playing over my music. It was nicer not to hear the bell from my (often much louder) speakers. - When my audio power amp is currently switched to another device, I now cannot hear the bell sound at all. Anyway, this is KDE, and customizing such behavior is great, and I can see why some people might want to hear it through headphones, and maybe some notebooks don't even have PC speakers: How about a third option on the configuration page "Use standard system bell"? As said, it is only about not intercepting other programs, not about adding it to new KDE programs. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
