Version: (using KDE 4.0.0) Installed from: SuSE RPMs If you want to configure a sound for a notification (e.g. the logout sound), using the System Settings -> Notifications -> System Notifications and you click on the "Open file diaglog" icon to browse for files, the default folder you'll find yourself in is "~/Documents". Inexperienced users might not know that they need to navigate to "/usr/share/sounds" to find other kde sounds. Therefore I would to suggest and request, that the default location for the "Open file" dialog when browsing for system sounds is changed to "/usr/share/sounds" instead of the user's Documents folder. I declare this as a bug, because it is a regression compared to the way it was/is on KDE3.
I'm in the way of fixing this.... I just sent a patch proposal for KUrlRequester to kde-core mailing list. If they approve the code, I can post the patch for the KNotify KCM
Created attachment 31059 [details] Proposed patch As I commited the change to KUrlRequester, I'm posting the patch for this
