I have the GAIM sounds turned on. I set the Gnome sound server to "Enable sound
server
startup" under Applications -> Preferences ->
Sound.
What am I missing?
In "Preferences", what do you have the "Sound Method" set to?
I don't have a "Sound Method" under Preferences. If I go to Preferences -> Sound the dialog box that comes up gives me 3 tabs "General" "Sound Events" and "System Bell." Under "General" I checked both boxes for Enable sound server startup and Sounds for Events. Under "Sound Events" is a list of specific events that I can set sounds too and under "System Bell" I have both boxes checked.
I meant gaim's preferences--not the system preferences. Bring up
gaim, click on "Preferences" in the login screen (or from one of the
"Tools" drop-down menus) and select "Sounds" there. I use the Automatic method and it works for me.
