No notification sound (linux desktops, some android phones) #22101

Open powerman opened 4 years ago

powerman commented 4 years ago

I've no notification sound on incoming chat messages on desktop (Gentoo Linux), while text popup notification works okay.

My friend doesn't have notification sound both on desktop (Ubuntu) and on phone (Android), but do have text notifications on both. (I've notification sound on phone (Android)).

This is very annoying and may become a reason to stop using keybase. :(

Sorry, this is an upstream bug. Perhaps you can configure your notification server to play a sound? For example, https://github.com/dunst-project/dunst/issues/257.

@heronhaye Can you please provide links to related upstream bug report(s)?

One more option how to add sound to these notifications is to use tool like https://github.com/dbazile/gaudible

Or use something like this one-liner:

dbus-monitor interface=org.freedesktop.Notifications | grep --line-buffered '^\s*string "Keybase"$' | while read; do play -q /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/message.oga; done

our company moved to keybase but no one gets notifications. now we consider to stop using. I think this issue must be marked as important because it really ruins experience of new users

Thanks a lot for this! That's working perfectly for me! (kde neon 18.04)

Looks like upstream fix was just merged: https://gitlab.xfce.org/apps/xfce4-notifyd/-/merge_requests/43 - any chance it'll work in Keybase anytime soon? :smile_cat:
