I am running Window XP Pro SP 3 and Outlook 2003.

I want to change my email notification sound so I did so in Windows
and can play it back just fine (in Control Panel) after I change it.

When I get a new email, I hear nothing.

I tried to rename my desire WAV file to the default Windows XP
Notify.wav and it still plays, but I hear nothing when I get a new
email in Outlook.

I tied to create a new scheme and it still does not work when a new
email comes in.

If I put the original Windows XP Notify.wav back, it plays manually
but not when I new email comes in.

I know this worked when I was running Windows 2000, but that was a
long time ago and I just changed it in XP for the heck of it. I don't
use my speakers that much, so it has probably been like this for a
long time and I just noticed it when I wanted to change this
particular sound.

The other Windows sounds seem to work okay except this one.

Any ideers out there?
