Is aRTs set to use ALSA? kcontrol (KDE Control Center)=> Sound and |
| 11 |
Multimedia=> Sound System=> Hardware Tab => Select the Audio device |
| 12 |
drop-down (choose 'Alsa'). |
| 13 |
|

Secondly, you do have system sounds turned on, yes? Assuming that the |
| 15 |
backend is properly configured, in order to have sounds in KDE you need |
| 16 |
the following settings in kcontrol: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Sound and Multimedia=> Sound System=> Sound System=> General Tab=> |
| 19 |
"Enable the Sound System" must be checked (system sounds are played |
| 20 |
through aRTS, and that is the sound system this checkbox enables); |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Sound and Multimedia=> System Notifications. When the "Event Source" |
| 23 |
drop-down in this dialog is set to KDE System Notifications, you need to |
| 24 |
make sure that: |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
1) valid sounds are associated with the various events (if the test of |
| 27 |
the sound doesn't play, well, it's not going to play in KDE either), and |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
2) The Quick Control, when the "Apply to all events" checkbox is |
| 30 |
checked, is not set to "Turn Off all Sounds". |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Hope this helps, |
