Hi Collins,

Are you building this yourself or using emerge? Either way, unless you 
"--enable-guievents" at build time you won't get an icesound binary, and 
thus no sound. Having said that, I have yet to get ANY system sounds 
from IceWM. I get sound from applications (xine, xmms etc) and on the 
web but nadda from IceWM. It's not all that important to me as I usually 
disable all those annoying little things anyway but... if it's supposed 
to be there where is it? You might try on either the icewm-users list or 
on the devel list, they're pretty helpful.

Good Luck ;-)
and HTH
