I have just installed a new f13 system clean in a machine that was previously running and needed updating and I have a problem that I can't fix. Everything that I have tested works just fine, except that in Thunderbird (both stock as well as latest nightly) if you go to Edit->Preferences->General and click to play a sound for incoming mail, then if you select the system sound it works, but if you ask it to play a .wav file then it does not but instead plays the default system sound ( a beep ) when email arrives. I have tried to run alsamixer from a terminal and have only a limited number of options but the few things that are visible are set on and at a reasonable level and this seems not to help. I have pavucontrol and paman installed but nothing there seems to help either for pulseaudio control. Yet in a terminal using aplay xxxx.wav does play the sound file perfectly, so sound appears to both be on and working. Does anyone else have this issue? If so is there a known workaround? I am guessing this is a bug in Thunderbird, but could be a problematic interaction between Thunderbird and pulseaudio? Any information gratefully received that might get this working.... oh and this is from Gnome as the desktop. -- mike c -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
