Bug Description
Steps to reproduce:
- Do a fresh install of Linux Mint 15 "olivia", Cinnamon 32-bit edition.
- Go to System Settings => Sound => Sound Effects
- "Alert volume" cannot be turned on.
My own troubleshooting:
All other sound was working fine. I just wanted the alert "beeps" available so I forced it on with the command:
gsettings set org.gnome.
Now the "Alert volume" is available and I can select the "Default" alert sound. Unfortunately I can't select "Bark", "Drip", "Glass", or "Sonar." A check of the file system reveals that Linux Mint 15 is missing the Gnome alert sound files (bark.ogg, drip.ogg, glass.ogg, sonar.ogg)!

Changed the topic for you.
I do not have the problem with the first part of the bug, where you can't turn it on, so that is probably a setting problem at your side.
I am however able to reproduce the second part of the bug, and it seems indead like Mint is missing .ogg-files.
I confirmed this.
