Hello!

My machine is amd64. However I noticed the following message of Ardour 
regarding the canberra-gtk-module when I launch it from the terminal (in bold 
relative with the specific module): 

alex at Kubuntu-pc:~$ ardour2
Ardour 2.8.11

As it is mentioned, Ardour tries to load it but can' find it since I have 
uninstalled it. But if I try to install it, then Ardour will not launch at 
all. 

So, I can' figure out what is happening here, but since I can work with Ardour 
then this is not a big deal! If you have any more information on this, I would 
love to hear it! If you need any more information, I am at your disposal. 
Thank you once again! 

Best Regards,

Alex
