           Summary: run command in konsole notifications has problems
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: umar at compsci.cas.vanderbilt.edu


Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
Compiler:          gcc-4.3.0 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

I always had problems with konsole notifications working with
the KDE sound system (all other notifications are working).

Instead I run a command for some notifications such as:

play -q /usr/share/sounds/KDE_Beep_ShortBeep.wav

The command itself works fine if executed in the konsole, but
produces no sound from konsole notifications. If I examine
the .xsession-errors file I see the following:

/bin/sh: play%20-q%20/usr/share/sound /KDE_Beep_ShortBeep.wav: No such file or
directory

(all in one line of course). So either blanks are replaced
by the %20 and the whole command looks continuous or
something else (I am using UTF-8 as default encoding).

I can trick it by putting the above command into a file
called "beep" in /usr/bin and just giving that as the command and it works.
