Enable Login Sound in Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin

By Umair Tuesday, June 19, 2012




By default, Ubuntu 12.04 doesn’t play a sound when you log in. You can easily enable the log-in sound by adding a startup application.

1. Launch “Startup Applications” from top right corner.

2. Click Add to add a start up app.

name: Gnome Login Sound
command: /usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="desktop-login" --description="GNOME Login sound"
comment: Play a sound at login

3. Save and make sure it’s been checked on.
Now, the login sound should work. The code in command area can be changed, test running it in a terminal window:
/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="desktop-login" --description="GNOME Login sound" --volume=10
or
paplay /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/desktop-login.ogg

Enjoy
