after upgrade gnome terminal beeps via system beeper
Last modified: 2008-05-06 12:31:12 EDT
Description of problem: After upgrade to most recent kernel (kernel-2.6.18-1.2200.fc5) gnome terminal beeps via system beeper not via sound card as it was previously. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.18-1.2200.fc5 gnome-terminal-2.14.2-1 How reproducible: hit tab multiple times in gnome terminal to produce beep Steps to Reproduce: 1. open gnome terminal 2. hit tab multiple times Actual results: beep sounds via system beeper Expected results: should be played via sound card as it was previously
This seems to manifest itself also when using OpenOffice so this bug should be recategorized.
The system beep can be disabled via gnome-sound-properties, but then it doesn't go through the sound card either. modprobe -r pcspkr also removes the beeping. I have run into the same problem (pc speaker beeping) after upgrading my system from fc4 to fc6, though I don't remember whether it beeped through the sound card before.
