276372 - No new mail notification sound

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

Description

[Sven Grull]

Seamonkey nightly 20041229

Since a few days Mozilla does not play the notification sound anymore when a new
mail arrives. Previewing the sound in the preferences windows is still working.
This bug occurs independent from the selection of custom sound file or system sound.

Forgot to mention: this happens for me with POP3.

Same here on Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8a6) Gecko/20041229

POP3, gtk1, no Global Inbox

Sven Grull: Under Windows, are you getting the little popup window announcing 
the arriving mail?

Hartmut Figge: Is this also a recent regression, or have you always had problems 
getting the sound under Linux?  (It's supposed to have been working under Linux 
for a while -- see bug 177280 -- but I can't test this.)

The popup notification still appears only the sound is missing.

After testing with my own private builds i can can now say, that the sound plays
fine until and including 2004122305 and ceased to work with 2004122408.

The build-dates are local, GMT+1, and the fetch from cvs was probably 0.5h before.

Confirming. Also Thunderbird on Windows.

Maybe this bug here is caused by Bug 226270, but Neil says it isn't.
