  1. Hello, I have this concern under Linux (and not just me) I have no need for system sounds that I find annoying in general, except that of emptying the trash, once under ubuntu you could activate it, now the sounds freedesktop oga extensions are no longer read by systems Linux, so more trash!
    The system sound files no longer include the trash and I was unable to find or locate the command (gui) to add a sound to it. I only get this by emptying the trash can with the proper sound with a command line alias, which is frankly not practical.
    Do you have an idea or go to my Debian to change the order?
    thank you in advance
