I can tell you how it used to be, three releases ago: the sound would get cut short if it took too long (shutdown was the priority, correctly so, I think). There was a bit of art and skill involved in crafting a custom sound which would last just long enough to avoid this cruel fate. Personally, I'd like things back to this. And yes, the bug is precisely that... It is listed as an option but doesn't function at all. Worst-case scenario is to remove the option; best-case is to make it work. -- Logout/Shutdown Sound Not Working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214370 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
