Please check everything that applies to your issue:

  • I looked in closed issues and it has not already been answered
  • My issue appeared with a terminal-notifier update
  • I'm using a tool that uses terminal-notifier (guard-notifier, node-notifier...)

To help us debug your issue please include:

  • MacOS Ventural 13.1
  • terminal-notifier 2.0.0
  • installed from homebrew

Reproduction

I've gone through the entire list of system sounds in Ventura, and terminal notifier isn't able to play any of them. Instead, I get this three-tone sound which I think was a default from an earlier version of MacOS. Notably, requesting default plays this same sound, rather than the configured default system sound.

It is able to play the old sounds left over on my system from previous OS updates, which are all stored in /System/Library/Sounds/. None of these sounds are the sound I get above when I request default or one of the current sounds. I don't know where that one comes from.

It seems like—rather than getting the list of system sounds from the OS—terminal-notifier has a built-in list that it just tries to load from this location? Something along those lines.
