Version: 2.7 (using KDE 4.7.0) OS: Linux Bell notifications are really necessary e.g. to be notified when somebody write to you in a chat software. There are 2 options for that in Konsole 2.7: - Bell in Visible Session - Bell in Non-Visible Session To try them, I just do a echo -e "\a" Bell in Visible session works, but all the time, even when the session is not visible, this can be annoying when you are chatting (you can have a bell each time somebody is writing to you). Bell in Non-Visible Session doesn't work at all, neither "Play a sound", "Show a message in a popup" or whatever). To try it, I use a sleep 5; echo -e "\a" then I change konsole tab, or go to an other app during the delay. I'm using Kubuntu 11.04. There are a few (old) bugs similar to this one, but it seems that the notifications menu where not present at the time, so I added this entry: - https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=165193 - https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124241 - https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=177861 I would be nice to fix this. thanks Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: - Tick one of "Bell in Non-Visible Session" notification - use this: sleep 10; echo -e "\a" - during the 10s delay, change tab or windows Actual Results: Nothing happen Expected Results: the notification should occur
