system sounds

I have been researching all morning and am having no luck installing a system sound theme. I have the theme saved to both /home/myname/.local/share/sounds and /usr/share/sounds I also set it in settings manager-xsettings-Net-sound theme name

but no sounds come up. My normal music files play fine also youtube etc but no system sounds. In audio mixer playback I have
system sound set to 100% but underneath the slider it stays at silence how can I make it recognize the system sound theme I have se up?

Re: system sounds

For full support, libcanberra is required.

What does dpkg -l '*canberra*' return?

Re: system sounds

I am at work now but will try when I get home, thanks. It seems like there should be an easy way to get and apply sound themes in xfce4

Re: system sounds

Can you also post back the results of:

ls -l /usr/share/sounds
ls -l ~/.local/share/sounds
xfconf-query -c xsettings -p /Net/EnableEventSounds
xfconf-query -c xsettings -p /Net/EnableInputFeedbackSounds
xfconf-query -c xsettings -p /Net/SoundThemeName
env | grep GTK_MODULES
ls -l /usr/share/sounds/$(xfconf-query -c xsettings -p /Net/SoundThemeName)/stereo
ls -l ~/.local/share/sounds/$(xfconf-query -c xsettings -p /Net/SoundThemeName)/stereo

Re: system sounds

well I should have given up on system sounds because now I have no sound for anything also now alsamixer shows an error even though I just reinstalled it

cmcanulty@Dell660s:~$ alsamixer
cannot open mixer: No such file or directory
cmcanulty@Dell660s:~$

audiomixer says no output devices I am using hdmi for the monitor and sound. All worked perfectly until I stupidly tried to get system sounds to work.



cmcanulty@Dell660s:~$ xfconf-query -c xsettings -lv | grep -i sound
/Net/EnableEventSounds          true
/Net/EnableInputFeedbackSounds  true
/Net/SoundThemeName             /usr/share/sounds/wolf

Re: system sounds

I will redirect you to ToZ's reply.

Can you try the executing the commands he listed out one by one and post back the outputs inside code tags?

Re: system sounds

That's because of an incorrect command substitution. Pay attention to pathname duplication:

ls: cannot access '/usr/share/sounds//usr/share/sounds/wolf/stereo': No such file or directory

Since we know the name of sound theme and that its subdirectory at least exists, can you directly list its contents with:

ls -l /usr/share/sounds/wolf

An even better listing would be:

find /usr/share/sounds/wolf

Re: system sounds

cmcanulty@Dell660s:~$ env | grep GTK_MODULES
GTK_MODULES=gail:atk-bridge

There were 2 problems with the system sounds:

  1. The canberra module was not enabled.

  2. The wolf sound theme is missing many of the available sound events.

Once you get the issue with the sound not working, we can return here to get it set up. Unfortunately, I'm not that familiar with the sound system - perhaps someone else can assist with getting it fixed.

Re: system sounds

I have zeroed in on the issue, I think. There seems to be a missing sound card driver. It did work fine until a few days ago. Here is some terminal output. I did search for missing drivers and none found. Any help please.

cmcanulty@Dell660s:~$ inxi -A
Audio:     Device-1: Intel 7 Series/C216 Family High Definition Audio driver: N/A 
cmcanulty@Dell660s:~$ sudo alsa force-reload

Re: system sounds

nothing

cmcanulty@Dell660s:~$ dpkg -l '*canberra*
> 

Also some new insights:

OK I have purged and reinstalled pulse and alsa and still no luck however I have no info. Alsa finds no sound card driver

 sudo alsa force-reload
Unloading ALSA sound driver modules: (none loaded).
Loading ALSA sound driver modules: (none to reload).

also my sound card is

from lspci command

Audio device: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04)

so how do I install or reinstall that driver? To be clear sound worked perfectly until I decided to try to get a sytsem sound theme to work which I never did and have given up on that. I just want sound back.

What's the output of:

Re: system sounds

This confirms that the sound modules aren't loaded by the kernel. You most likely blacklisted it.

Can you share the contents of your /etc/default/grub file? Afterwards, list the following directory and paste it here:

ls -lA /etc/modprobe.d/

Re: system sounds

You edited the alsa-base.conf modprobe configuration file. Generally, when you bork something, you just have to revert its config files back to its previous state.

Can you share the content of that alsa-base.conf file?

Re: system sounds

Which commands did you issue? Check your Bash history file or try to recollect.

In the meantime, reinstall the alsa-base package.

Re: system sounds

I reinstalled alsa-base and every other sound app I could find a few days ago with no result. I just completely removed it and reinstalled it again and I copied alsa-base.conf from a recent backuup to modprobe.d to replace the one I I had modified and rebooted. Still no sound. Am I going to have to reinstall? That would be a nightmare but I am stuck now. Is there any other file I should replace from my backup drive? Thank you my bash history only had today. I edited bash.rc today to make it append and not overwrite history.
