no sound on message recieved (group only) #151

When receiving a message in a group chat there is no notification sound, however, when receiving a message from an individual person there is.

Perhaps I'm missing something in the settings.

Thank you for the message. You are not missing anything. For identifying chats, Purple uses numeric IDs. WhatsApp uses a string (at least historically). It makes chat lookup a bit tedious. Also I did not find out how to use purple_conv_chat_get_nick(chat), yet. Hence I use a non-standard way of writing messages to chats which does not include firing the event which ultimately plays the sound.

Note to self: Organize chats based on numeric IDs and use serv_got_chat_in. Find out how to incorporate purple_conv_chat_get_nick(chat).
Or just manually do a purple_signal_emit(purple_conversations_get_handle(), "received-chat-msg", g->account, who, message, conv, flags);.

If it helps, in other prpls I've just done a g_str_hash() (from the GHashTable set of functions) to convert chat names into chat id's. Works pretty well.

This should be working now.
