Hi,

I am on Kubuntu and i have no sound when NoScript block something. The default path for block.wav file is supposed to be : "chrome://noscript/skin/block.wav"

This path does not exist on my system or i can't find him... Where block.wav can be ?

Any idea ?

Type: chrome://noscript/skin/block.wav into the URL bar & hit Enter.
Should get a prompt to open "block.wav".
Open it with a media player.
Should play a sound.

Does it?

It is a path within (the compressed archive) noscript.jar (found within your extensions directory).

block.wav is actually within noscript.jar at: \chrome\noscript.jar\skin\classic\noscript\block.wav
(Even so, the default value is valid. Don't know how one maps to another, but it does.)

Though it appears that the sound (block.wav) is not firing all the time, as you would expect?

Like it does not seem to fire here: http://slickdeals.net/ or on these forums for that matter ?

I'm back.

Well, I had no media player (maybe it was the problem), so I downloaded KMplayer. The file works correctly, but no change in firefox. I uninstalled my media player, would I keep it ?

It just does not work. When I click "play" in the options ; "audio feedback...", there is no sound.

Heh. Now how did I miss that?
That was the only reason I mentioned a media player, so you could verify that something does play.
So in that respect, since you can test it right there, no media player required.

I seem to be seeing a bug where it does not play on certain sites.

Your issue is obviously different, not sure what else to suggest?
