Bug ID: 418975
Summary: .wav files don't play when set as notification sound
in gui, but work in notification sound preview
Product: frameworks-knotifications
Version: 5.68.0
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Reporter: i...@kintsugi-computers.org
CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
Created attachment 126862

Included a test .wav file I used to verify the issue. (.wav re-encode of one of
the default system sounds)
SUMMARY
.wav files don't play back when assigned to a notification event. They play in
the preview area fine but do nothing when an event is actually triggered. .ogg
files work perfectly in both scenarios.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Assign a short .wav file to a notification event using the notifications
menu in the settings gui.
2. Note that .wav file plays back correctly when pressing the play preview
button.
3. Trigger event with relevant notification. Nothing happens.
4. Re-encode file to .ogg. Assign .ogg file instead of .wav
5. Event sound now works.
OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens when a .wav file is assigned to a notification event and
triggered.
EXPECTED RESULT
The .wav file should play when the event is triggered.
