 |
|
Hi,
I've got a curious issue : the first time I login into gnome (right after the boot) I don't ear the starting sound, but only this sound because other sounds work (i.e. I can ear the toggle sound if I click on a start application applet on the panel), If I logout and login again I can ear also the starting sound.
What should it be? I don't think that it's a configuration issue because other sounds work great and on the second login also the starting sound. |

Last time I looked the alsasound service was started after X in the boot order, and esound depends on that; so if you're logging in as soon as gdm comes up you're probably getting in before sound is fully available.

I'm using parallel-startup anyway I can see service alsasound started and service esound started right before gdm comes up, I set gdm to play a sound when the login screen is ready and I can always hear that sound so I don't think that the sound isn't available at that time, anyway I also noticed that service xdm started is always before alsasound and esound services, perhaps gdm uses directly alsasound to play its sound that for some reason it starts before gdm and gnome uses esound that for some other reason starts after some time.
What do you think? |

| I also tried to login after some minutes but the starting sound doesn't still work on first login, so I don't think it's a alsasound/esound problem. |

| Opening gdmsetup (aka System>Administration>Login Window), the login sound setting is located under the Accessibility tab. Given that gdm has an accessibility use flag when emerged, there may be a coincidence going on here. But I haven't tried it yet so I don't know for sure :-p |

| Nope...that didn't seem to work. I would say this version of gdm has it fundimentally broken? |
