I never seem to be able to get sound apps working quickly/easily in Linux (or WIndows for that matter). Is it really such a black art.
.... but there's no sound, which is rather fundamental for a phone application! And there's no way to diagnose it at all, no simple tests to play a sound, nothing, nada. How is one meant to configure and test sound setup on Linux (Ubuntu 10.04 in this case) with no simple tests to try out.
Have you tried: System -> Administration -> System Testing. It has sound tests.
