I have tried this and it doesn't work:

cd /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo
sudo cp desktop-login.ogg desktop-login.ogg.old
sudo cp ~/Downloads/dekstop-login.ogg .

...where the ogg file in the Downloads directory is the new startup song.

This script has successfully replaced the old file and I can see and play the new ogg file in the stereo directory, but I can't hear anything at startup.

Are there any other methods?

  • Did you make sure that the script didn't disable the sound at startup? ubuntugeek.com/… Mar 24, 2015 at 7:18
  • It did not. The sound works just fine, both in the login screen and while logged in. The startup sound doesn't play though.

  • Are you logging in as guest or an account? If account, does it play when logging in as guest? Mar 24, 2015 at 7:37
  • Also, try to delete the .dconf in home folder and start over. Mar 24, 2015 at 7:40
  • Deleting the .gconf seems to have solved the problem. Thank you very much!
