I did the proposed test.
The result was that "artsd" did not start at all. And I
heard all sounds including the start up jingle.
I started look around in the "Control Center" applikation and
realised that it was possible to put "artsmessage" in debug mode.
So I put it in debug mode.
After I changed the Setuid bit back to on for "artsd" (4775) and restared KDE
by logout/login I got Eighty ( 80 ) messages saying:
Warning - Artsmessage
Sound server warning message:
file format extension "wav" unsupported.
As all the sound files are .wav 's this is ofcourse
a wee problem.
How can we find out why "artsd" thinks Wav's are unsupported ?
