Specifies the name and location in the application folder of audio files that are to be pre-loaded when an agent logs in. For Example: "Sounds\Ring.mp3|primary,Sounds\bell|secondary.mp3,Sounds\chord.mp3|both,Sounds\warning.mp3". The audio files are defined by the options that control sounds, such as voice.ringing-bell and chat.new-message-bell. Files that are not specified by this option are loaded whenever they are needed. The file value has two components that are separated by the character '|':
- The file name and folder relative to the application folder. In some virtual desktop environments, MP3 and other sound file formats cannot be rendered by Direct Show filters. In this scenario, use Direct Show compatible formats such as .wav.
- The priority. The higher the integer the higher the priority.
-
The duration:
- -1 means play and repeat until an explicit message stops it. For example, the established event stops the ringing sound.
- 0 means play the whole sound one time.
- An integer > 0 means a time, in milliseconds, to play and repeat the sound.
-
Specify whether tones are played on the default audio device, a secondary audio device, or both. If no value is specified for this flag, the value |primary is used by default.
- primary—Play the sound on the default audio output device
- secondary—Play the sound on the secondary audio device, as defined by the application.secondary-audio-out-device configuration option
- both—Play the sound on the default and secondary (application.secondary-audio-out-device configuration option) audio devices
