ive recently updated from plasma 6.2.5 to plasma 6.4.3 on kde neon stable
the system notifications used to work (e.g sound when plugging in a device or power connector or error sounds) this has stopped working for me on the latest update, the only place where sound can be heard is by changing the volume using the volume keys and that works correctly across different sound fonts
not sure what kind of additional info might be needed for this but any help would be appreciated
hi, welcome.
the sounds are all controlled by the notification settings
settings > notifications > device notifyer
settings > notifications > power management
etc.
under each is a configure button where you can access what sound is played for various events
i have indeed tried to check and change them, i even tried browsing for the file but it still wont play, when i even try to hit preview sound nothing plays
all the values do exist in the sound font, ive made sure they are, plus they used to work just fine before updating

Check your volume and mute settings.
-
Make sure notification sounds are enabled in system settings.
-
Restart your device.
-
Update your audio and video drivers.
-
Test with different apps to see if the issue is system wide.
respectfully ive already mentioned this isnt the issue
sound plays just fine (“the only place where sound can be heard is by changing the volume using the volume keys and that works correctly across different sound fonts”)
audio works in all applications
ive also mentioned that the sound preview button will not play the sound, it’s not an issue with the notification sounds being disable (despite them being enabled)
I am having the same issue on 6.4.4 on arch Linux. No sound issues on the system anywhere except for KDE notifications. Been like that for a week or so for me. Same situation where even playing the preview doesn’t work.
System to the notification to the sounds are not playing.
