Do you have these audio files inside the /usr/share/sounds or inside A 
FOLDER into /usr/share/sounds

There are some of these sounds I have inside the sound themes I have 
test, but someones does not exists.

Could you zip them and send me your sound files? I want to test it and 
try to solve my problem.

I have some event sounds, but it is very strange how they works.

Some events does not play any sound (for example: the empty trash or 
some dialogs like gedit asking when closing whitout saving, etc.).

I'm using Debian Testing + XFCE 4.10.


Please, send me the sound theme you are using for testing.

Thanks!
