Maybe is that you have to enable system sounds. Go to Gnome/system/preferences/sound themes tab and select "sound theme: default". Then, try to play that Canberra sound again :-) Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

There should be a drop-down menu to select the theme in use (by default is disabled -no sounds-, so you have to click on the combo box and choose "default" theme to enable system sounds). You can also launch "gnome-volumen-control" in console to check for any error messages. BTW, it is working fine here (testing) :-?
