xfce(1F) xfce(1F) NAME xfsound - xfce Sound SYNOPSYS xfsound [--display] --display host:dpy specifies the server to connect to. DESCRIPTION xfsound is both a user interface and a module that actually plays sound defined through the GUI. If xfsound is started from the command prompt, a window will come out and display a user interface, defining a way to play a sound whenever an event from xfwm is detected. If xfsound is started from xfwm's config(1,5) or from xfce using the keyword "Module" then xfsound will be started as a background module that keeps on listenning to xfwm events and play a sound accordingly. xfsound can play sounds internally, or use a user defined command that is supposed to play the sound. xfce provides the shell script xfplay to do that. xfplay is a script that reads a .wav file(1,n) and send(2,n) it to /dev/dsp using sox If you use xfce through a local network, you'd rather use rplay to play sound across the network. FILES ~/.xfsoundrc contains the user preferences for sound settings.
