Notification sounds don't play, in Gajim. However, this is solved by installing the gsound pkg. The fix would be to make the gajim pkg depend on gsound. Interestingly, while one of Gajim's config files mentions "aucat -i" it doesn't seem to use it.
Additional info about my machine: Gajim version: gajim-1.3.2 $ freebsd-version -kru 13.0-RELEASE-p4 13.0-RELEASE-p4 13.0-RELEASE-p5 $ uname -a FreeBSD nyann.tanasinn.mochi 13.0-RELEASE-p4 FreeBSD 13.0-RELEASE-p4 #0: Tue Aug 24 07:33:27 UTC 2021 root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/GENERIC amd64
Hello, does this issue still arrive in modern gajim versions?

gsound is indeed required for notification support. Not sure why it took that long to bring it here, apologies. Thank you for heads up!
