Bug description

When enabling VISUAL ALERTS by going to System Settings > Keyboard > Enable Visual Alerts, the "bing-a-bing" old style start up sound, and the new "Wong" start up sound play at the same time when booting the OS. Producing a "Wong" "Bing-a-bing" sound when starting up Linux Mint Debian Edition 6 Faye.

Steps to reproduce

I turned off VISUAL ALERTS and RESTARTED my computer and the "Wong" start up sound plays as expected. But when I turn VISUAL ALERTS back on and RESTART my computer, I get both the "Bing-a-bing" and the "Wong" start up sounds playing at the same time. This oddity occurs in LMDE6.

Expected behavior

I would suspect that I should only be hearing one startup sound. Either the "Bing-a-bing" or the "Wong" but not both.

Additional information

I found this issue when enabling visual alerts in System Settings > Keyboard > Enable Visual Alerts. Turning this on plays the "Bing-a-bing" startup sound. When you restart the system with Enable Visual Alerts on, BOTH the "Bing-a-bing" and the "Wong" startup sounds play at the same time. I hope this describes this issues. Please, if you have any questions regarding this, feel free to contact me on GitHub.

Can you show me a screenshot of the setting for the visual alert?

ghost commented 6 months ago

Absolutely. And I think I made a mistake in directing you to the problem. I apologize. I think this screenshot should lead you right.

The start up sound happens when you turn on "Enable Visual Alerts." I hear the "bing-a-bing" start up sound. Then, when I restart my computer, I hear both startup sounds play at the same time.

How do you launch these settings?

ghost commented 6 months ago

From System Settings > Accessibility > Keyboard.

Ok that makes sense. Thanks.
