sounds on hobbit alerts

I've had a system doing this :D

 
I set up an ESD server (Enlightened Sound Daemon) where I was wanting
the sound to be played, then set up an alert script to play the sound to
it.

 
The script was something like:

 
#!/bin/bash

export ESPEAKER=10.2.0.81

esdplay /usr/local/hobbit/server/ext/alerts/somethingwrong.wav

 
With 10.2.0.81 being the location of the ESD server.

 
For setup of the server, take a look at:

http://www.tux.org/~ricdude/EsounD.html

 
It's probably installed though.

 
I started it with something like: esd -promiscuous -tcp -public

 
Make sure to actually turn the sound on, using one of the mixers.

Hi All,

 
Is it possible to set alerts to play sound on hobbit when the colour
changes to red, yellow?
