New question #78706 on Ubuntu:

I clicked on the "Problem Solved" button instead of "Send More Information," so my sound problem continues. However, I have made progress toward a solution. I found that the necessary .ogg sound files are listed in usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo. So, the problem is not that there are no sound files to play. Rather, why they don't play is now the issue.

For system info, here is the output of "uname -a":

Linux douglas-desktop 2.6.28-14-generic #47-Ubuntu SMP Sat Jul 25 00:28:35 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux.

And running "lsb_release -a" gives:

No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
Description:	Ubuntu 9.04
Release:	9.04
Codename:	jaunty

Mine is a dual-boot machine with Windows XP Pro.
