Thank you for the response Phillip.
I have visited the site that you said, and tried everything. No dice.
The peculiar thing is that when I ran artsd -l 0, and used artsplay to play a wav file, I still got nothing (or a high-pitched, barely audible squeal) -- and yet there was absolutely no error output on the terminal I was running artsd -l 0 on).
UnixManager: got notifyIO
socketconnection created, fd = 11
search playobject, extension = wav
creating Arts::audiofilePlayObject to play file /usr/local/share/sounds/KDE_Window_Sticky.wav
loading wav: /usr/local/share/sounds/KDE_Window_Sticky.wav
frame size: 2
channels: 1
bits: 16
job finished
So arts thinks that it did its job just fine (even though it clearly didn't). I can bypass arts and play the same file with waveplay without any problems.
Sigh...
Anyone?
