Hi
It's in the Control Center -> Startup Applications and it's called
'Gnome Login Sound' and runs the following command;

/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="desktop-login" --description="GNOME
Login"

Just change the --id= to --file= and provide the full path and filename.

My login doesn't have any sound even with the default setting.

Changed it to a file I'd like to play and still no sound, but since I
sometimes get that blank background with no desktop icons, and have to
reset until they appear, I leave my PC on all the time now.

Sigh :(
