Default Play sound whe new message arrive doesn't work

I have Outlook Express 6 and my options are set to "Play sound when new
messages arrive." Unfortunately, when new messages arrive there is no sound!
My sound scheme is Windows Default and under Program events New Mail
Notification is selected.
I would appreciate any help to fix this problem.

Thank you in advance,

Default Play sound whe new message arrive doesn't work

What about in: Control Panel | Sounds and Audio Devices | Sounds | New Mail
Notification?

Default Play sound whe new message arrive doesn't work

In Control Panel, Sounds, New Mail Notification, If the sound doesn't
seem to play, you may need to select a different sound, then change it
back to the desired one. Verify that Preview works on the selected
sound as well.



Also note that the sound is played after OE downloads messages from a
POP3 mail server. I don't believe that it works with HTTP (Hotmail/MSN)
or IMAP accounts.
