No, not at all. I was just curious

Itās a chicken and egg situation. If you donāt have sound events working, it makes difficult to produce a sound scheme. And if you donāt have the sound scheme, it makes difficult to test if the events are produced. At least, we broke the loop. A small step is always a progress no matter how it is small. Now, we need someone interested by the subject to fix sound events. Thereās a good side; a sound doesnāt get rusty with timeā¦

Sounds like an issue worth fixing.

I personally use desktop sounds as much as possible, even the maximizing/iconification sounds. :] I am all happy inside when my system feels rather lived in.
I have set up most of the sounds from the sound contest in my installation, but as many others reported, only the startup and the ding sounds work.

One idea relative to sound : if I have Haiku with no internet connection, it would be useful to have a kind of testing sound application/utility.
No need to have a media, only a testing tool to generate a sound on the fly, so a user can verify if its sound card is working fine.
Iāve made a quick test by using BSoundPlayer and itās working fine.

Demo Audio producer is already shipped in Cortex. We should maybe get a more user friendly speaker test ib the media preferences
Thanks, I wasnāt aware of the Demo Audio producer add on and indeed itās possible to test the sound 
Having a speaker test feature directly accessible in the media preferences could be a nice addition indeed.
Yes it would be nice, but there was a long and fruitless discussion about Test-Sound already, with no result!
