( I thought it was supposed to be checked) Doesn't matter though, with "Enable the sound system" checked I still don't have "System Notification" sound although the "Test Sound" button plays a sound.
If I go to kcontrol>Sound & Multimedia>System Notifications>Actions> then press the play button there is no sound there (KDE_Glass_Break.ogg). Although the following does work:
me@athlon ~ $ /usr/local/bin/Ksplay /usr/kde/3.5/share/sounds/KDE_Glass_Break.ogg <--- this plays a sound of glass breaking.
If I put aplay in "Player Settings" kcontrol>Sound & Multimedia>System Notifications>Actions> then press the play button it sounds like garbage, like "cat /dev/urandom > /dev/adsp".
Doing the following sounds like garbage, too:
/usr/bin/aplay /usr/kde/3.5/share/sounds/KDE_Glass_Break.ogg |
aplay isn't supposed to play ogg files. try to use:
#ogg123 --device=alsa09 filename.ogg
however your alsa is working if Ksplay works,
so please recheck your Kcontrol->Sound and Multimedia->System Notification-> advanced
the field whould contain JUST "/usr/local/bin/Ksplay" (without parenthesys), NOTHING more
(to change volume or other option, manually edit Ksplay file).

eh, uh, ohhhh, well it gaved hundreds of headaches to lots of users, from the infamous 99% cpu use to the issues
for speed, suid, etc.etc.
More than this, arts is gonna being discontuìnued (no arts in kde 4 , but phonon with nmm and other backends).

kcontrol>Sound & Multimedia>System Notifications>Player Settings>"Open file dialog" icon>click on Kplay script>click "OK">click "Apply" (An option that was greyed out previously for some reason)> click "OK">click "Apply" ... now it's working again for some reason.
The only thing that I have done differently beside what I mentioned about was recompile kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.5-r5 with out arts support. I did that before I did what I mentioned about.
Thank you for your help

I've been slowly phasing out arts usage on my system for about 3 months now, I readiness for kde4, but my wrapper scripts for system sounds used three separate players for each filetype (ogg, mp3 and wav) and I was just trying to workout how to change the volume, when I saw the sox script, and banged my head against the keyboard a few times for being stupid  |

I did the same at my first tries,perfect solution is often different from first solution 
(and someone suggested me to use sox too....)

Care! Latest Sox needs another volume option:
no more
| Code: |
#!/bin/sh
sox "$@" -v 0.7 -q -t alsa default &
|
that doesn't works anymore,but
| Code: |
#!/bin/sh
sox "$@" -q -t alsa default vol 0.7 &
