Having changed my default alert sound, I seem to have lost the music
that plays at login. Resetting the alert sound back to the "factory
default" does not bring it back. Anyone know how to get this back?

Thanks,

Dave

Hey Dave! Does this command play the sound for you?

/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="desktop-login" --description="GNOME Login"

If yes, you can add it to system settings, startup applications.

Thank you!

The command does not play the sound; returns with error:
"failed to play sound data or file not found"

Does this work?

/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play -f /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/desktop-login.ogg

This one does work, thanks! I'll fix Startup Applications accordingly.

Have you tried Start>System Settings>Startup Applications>Gnome Login Sound ?

Yes, I have. The box is checked, and the following command is in the
field for 'command':

/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="desktop-login" --description="GNOME Login"

Thanks!
