[Bug 744615] Re: "No sounds" should disable even the login sound

 

the incomplete bugs are expired in an automatic way; you should set the
bug back to unconfirmed or new when you reply.

what you describe there is confusing but not technically a bug or a gdm
issue, the dialog you use is an user one and the login screen is a
system one so normal users can't change its configuration...

letting the bug closed since that's not really a bug and there are other
tickets open about the confusion that creates

Title:
  "No sounds" should disable even the login sound

Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gdm

  If a user goes to System | Preferences | Sound and chooses the "No
  sounds" theme, they are expressing a very clear preference: Don't play
  sounds. But gdm plays the login sound (the drums) anyway, making the
  user hunt down the System | Administration | Login Screen dialog where
  there's a "Play log-in sound" checkbox (thanks to the fix for
  #437429).

  gdm should not play the login sound when the user has said "no sounds"
  in the Sound preferences.
