CTCP sound events under Linux Pidgin

[Conal Mullan]

Hullo

I have the audio working on Pidgin Linux for default sounds, [using
the aplay -q %s command in sound preferences]

but when receiving a command like for example 'Received CTCP 'SOUND
snd/Cymbal.au' (to #proi) from cisco'

i dont get the sound, can anyone tell me why this is? Do i need to
have that Cymbal.au file saved locally somewhere? and if so where?

thanks for the great software and any help offered.

[ps. i also trawled through the mailing list archives, but dont see
this issue addressed there either]
