Yes,sort of. Works on startup and shutdown. I just test it on
http://flowplayer.org/ and it worked but when I tested Sound Preferences
it did not. Devices were set on autodect. I tried all the other choices
and they worked when tested. I left them on OSS (Open Sound System).
Still no sound on Sound Preference - Sounds. They were working yesterday.
When I set a sound in Thunderbird other than default sound (which I
don't think there is one), when there is new mail my screen gets dark
and have to force quit Thunderbird.
