No sound after migration

#3303

I have had to do a clean install of macOS (14.1) and to reinstall MailMate. For the most part, everything is working fine. HOWEVER, since the move I find that I am unable to get MailMate to play ANY SOUNDS whatsoever. It doesn't play the whoosh sound for messages being sent, and it doesn't play any sound for incoming messages.

Yet when I go to MailMate's preferences and check under Counters > Sound, there is a sound selected there and if I select it again in the popup menu, it plays just fine.

Similarly, in MailMate's preferences, under Composer > Sent Message Sound, there is a sound selected there and if I select it again in the popup menu, it plays just fine.

So it's not like there cannot be ANY sounds coming from MailMate. They play fine in the preference panes. But they don't play (or are silenced) while using MailMate.

I have reproduced this with both r5937 and the latest, r5998. I don't know what else to try. Sounds play fine elsewhere in macOS, through the appropriate channels (general sound output for general sounds and specific sound output for sound effects).

    Bloody hell, just realized that the new version of macOS had somehow failed to ask me to authorized notifications for MailMate (or I missed it). Now that I have enabled notifications, everything is working fine. Sorry about that.
