Since VO and terminals don't mix as well as they used to, I installed #
emacs and #
emacspeak on my newly repaired 2013 iMac. Got most things working, however I'd like to get the Emacspeak sound icons working correctly. Unfortunately, while it plays the startup sound and can produce sine-wave tones, it doesn't seem to play the other icons. Help from the Emacs and Emacspeak gurus much appreciated!

Important bits of init.el (rest is comments and custom-set-variables which sets the theme):
(setopt swiftmac-default-voice-string "[{voice :Daniel}] [[pitch 1]]")
(setq-default load-path (cons "~/.emacs.d/emacspeak/lisp" load-path))
(setopt mac-ignore-accessibility 't)
(setopt dtk-program "swiftmac")
(setq-default emacspeak-play-program "/usr/local/bin/play")
(require 'emacspeak-setup)
(dtk-set-rate 250 t)
(emacspeak-sounds-select-theme "pan-chimes/")
