Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 191614

(SeaMonkey :: Preferences, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030507
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030507

In the Preferences/Popup Windows menu, I chose a custom sound to play on the
blocking of a popup. However, when a popup is blocked, the default Windoze
'ding' "critical stop" noise is played, rather than my selected sound. I have
tried many different file formats and different sounds, but none have worked;
the ding keeps playing whenever I preview it in the menu or encounter a blocked
popup.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click Edit and Enter Preferences/Privacy & Security/Popup Windows
2. Select the box to play a sound, and choose a custom sounds rather than the
default
3. Preview or encounter the occurance of a blocked popup

Actual Results:  
I just heard the 'ding' sound, not the file(s) I tried.

Expected Results:  
It should have played my custom sound I navigated to in the Windows Explorer
menu after clicking "Select".

Using the latest build, just downloaded it about 30 minutes ago. Would like to
see it fixed in a new build sometime soon :)

Seems to be a problem on Windows 98
