I cannot reproduce this problem with latest Plasma NM and 4.7.2. Anyway, it is not Plasma NM that plays the sound, knotify does. You should also check if phone is properly configured: go to systemsettings -> Multimedia -> Phonon -> Audio Playback -> Notifications, click on the first audio device and then on button "Test". If it emmits no sound than there is something wrong in your audio configuration. (In reply to comment #1) > I cannot reproduce this problem with latest Plasma NM and 4.7.2.

Everything else on the system plays out normally, sound from web pages, my startup and shutdown sounds, audio from amaroK or VLC, and the configuration test you give me above works fine. I get notifications from all other applications that they're set up for, just not anything from NM. By the way, just to clarify, I didn't say it was the network manager that made the sounds, just that sounds should play when the events occur in NM :) You filled the bug against Plasma NM and not knotify, that is why I wrote it is knotify that plays the sound. Can you send me your ~/.kde/share/config/networkmanagementrc? Created attachment 64682 [details]

Oh crud! Sorry about that Lamarque, I didn't realize I'd filed it wrongly. See Comment 4 for a copy of the file you requested. Sorry, I asked the wrong file. The one I need is ~/.kde/share/config/networkmanagement.notifyrc (In reply to comment #6) > Sorry, I asked the wrong file.

notifyrc from networkmanagement
Everything normal in networkmanagement.notifyrc. Is the problem only the sound or the popups also do not appear? I actually get neither, no popup or sound. It's the sounds that are the biggest issue for me, Lamarque - My eyesight isn't brilliant, and whenever I'm not at the keyboard, the notifications make it easier for me to work out what is going on. I cannot figure out why it's only network manager they don't function for, everything else works... I can: the notifications are emited by the Plasma NM's kded module, which starts early during opening a Plasma Desktop session. Several months ago someone complaint about notifications appearing before the plasmoid, so I changed Plasma NM to only create the notification manager after the plasmoid is running. Maybe there is a problem in this part. I just do not understand why it only happens to you. For me the notification works without problems. I am using Plasma NM for NM-0.9, which Plasma NM version do you use? You can check the version in Manage Connections -> Other, there should be a string like nm09-20111001 there. If there is no version there then you are using NM-0.8 and should upgrade to NM-0.9. (K)Ubuntu 11.10 ships with network-manager-kde_0.9~svngit.nm09.20110610.0c83d8-0ubuntu5, right? In June 12, two days after (K)Ubuntu created that package, I fixed this bug: https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/base/networkmanagement/repository/revisions/d26d6f69a6677b6c968a7dab0fa453f41d6c5ba7 that is problaby the cause of your problem. You should upgrade Plasma NM. |
