Does Plasma only play system sounds when system sounds are enabled?

It doesn’t make sense for that to be the case, I hope it’s a bug.

I have this page of settings enabled by default.

Do you have this unchecked?

If I have notification settings unchecked here it’s not playing the samples on that menu.

Is checked by default.

And if you uncheck it, are you able to play the sounds in the Notification menu?

Is curious.

If I uncheck, the sounds are not played. I think is a normal behaviour.

I don’t think making the play sample sample non-function is intentional, especially without any explanation.

When I read your ticket, I understand what is your problem and I prefer to explain my case in case you need to revise the ticket.

If I click here:

sound works. With checkbox marked or unmarked. Sounds always.

The place where there is no sound is in the notifications.
