Some additional information. In the patch to /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu- branches/ubuntu/wily/pulseaudio/wily/view/head:/debian/patches/0006 -load-module-x11-bell.patch
line #9 should say "sample=x11-bell", rather than "sample=bell.ogg". One additional change is needed to /etc/pulse/default.pa: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu- branches/ubuntu/wily/pulseaudio/wily/view/head:/src/daemon/default.pa.in line #29 should be uncommented, to load an audio file as a sample named "x11-bell". Note that line #178 in the same file would use the "x11-bell" sample name: however it should NOT be uncommented, as explained in comments right above. module-x11-bell will be loaded by X running the /usr/bin /start-pulseaudio-x11 command, via /etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop . -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/769314 Title: System bell broken in Natty/Unity (despite heroic...)
