[QUOTE="walkerj, post: 442932, member: 9385"] When this happens, I'll bet your iChat client doesn't make any noise either, right? Happens to me too. Periodically (and entirely too often) iChat and mail sounds quit working, yet other sounds work fine. The solution is to quit both mail and iChat, go into activity monitor, and search for a process called coreaudiod. Use Activity Monitor to quit that process (highlight and hit the big stop sign, acknowledge the box that pops up, and you'll have to enter your 'root' password.) It'll start itself back up again, and your mail sounds should be back along with iChat. That's the way to do it without rebooting, which I'm averse to doing. It's still annoying and one of those things I hope Apple fixes some day. [/QUOTE]
