Bug Description

Binary package hint: pulseaudio

In hardy heron, while logging out, the logout sound doesn't play. The problem is that while logging out, pulseaudio server terminates before the logout sound is played thus making the playing of the logout sound impossible. I think it would be a good idea to schedule pulseaudio to terminate last at logout process.

Momentarely I haven't got an idea how to schedule it to terminate last, but I thought someone might have...

I don't hear the log out sound on the Jackalope either.

Me neither.

This is probably off-topic, but can a sound event (custom or default) be added to the timed logout confirmation, in addition to (or in place of) the logout sound? This might appease some of the angry mob posting in UbuntuForums about this bug.

A cheesie bossa nova piece would be perfect and very amusing for this purpose.

I've got the same problem. Login sound plays but nothing on logout/shutdown.

Any solution or workaround?
