I registered here just to post the fix. I hope someone can benefit from it. : )

Sounds would not play for me either. Windows Ultimate x64. I tried everything people suggested but everything was fruthless.

So without further ado,



Go to Account ---> Sorting Office/Filters

Sel ect "Incoming mail", right click and add "New Filter";

Name it as you like and in the Condition window choose ["Time of" - reception - is fr om ] and then put 00:00 to 23:00;

In the Actions windows click Add and then choose "Play a sound";

Choose the wav file that you want and click OK;


Sound should play now.

P.S. Although this works perfectly, it is a workaround. This is still a bug and developers should look in to it.

=============

Sounds in v4 work fine on XP3.

The only problem I have found with sounds and v4 is if you have a lot of sub-filtering. You cannot access the message that triggered the sound event until TB! has finished processing the whole set of filters making TB! appear to hang.

I have the same problem - sound for incoming messages (for 4 accounts) worked in old version V1.62 flawless.
Since V4 (and now V5.0.12) I mostly hear no sound for incoming messages.
Path and sound-files are OK (testing is OK too).

Even tried the trick with creating a "sounds" folder for the sound files.

Still waiting for a fix...

Edit: Windows XP SP3

Again doing the test , I can hear the sound.



Still when new mail comes in , there is nothing but silence.

=============
Under the option where you re-mapped your sound file, there's another option - 'Allow sound only within time interval.' Is there any time restriction visible - ideally, the entry therein should read as follows:-

00:00-24:00

This was actually fixed in v5.0.12.
I think this will work for you too, if you'll just do a clean install of v5.0.12.

That's not really true - my sound file is mapped to " C:\Windows\Media\ " and it plays fine.



Maybe, you need to re-check the sound file extension (mine is .WAV)

Using The bat V 5.0.12/ Windows 7 64Bit

Trying to set up the sound notification for new messages.
I can map the sound to the Windows Media folder and if I do a test on the sound it plays. It does not play when a message arrives.

Doing a search on the forums, and found that the sound should be in the Sounds folder in The Bat folder.
No such folder, so I have created a folder (Sounds) in The Bat folder and tried that but still no luck.

Is there something I am doing wrong, or does the sound notification not work.
