Public bug reported:

I am running Ubuntu Gnome 15.04 (with Gnome Shell) with Gnome 3.14. And
I currently have the default alert sound "Drip", however I wanted to
change to "Sonar", so I went into "Settings > Sound > Sound effects",
and I tried just selecting the new sound I wanted and then closing the
window. That did not work so I tried going back and doubling-clicking,
right-clicking, etc... Nothing worked though...

I then tried it the command-line way, so I ran:

    gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.sound theme-name

Which outputted:

    'freedesktop'

So I then ran:

    gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.sound theme-name 'sonar'

And checked that:

    gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.sound theme-name

Outputted:

    'Sonar'

And it did, but still, no change, still the "Drip" sound...
