Alex,

I understand playing a sound using QSound. I would like to play the 
sounds that are configured to be played for specific events like an 
exclamation, critical error, disallowed, new mail and so on. You can 
find these settings under Control Panel > Sound > Sounds Tab in Windows 
Vista (similar in previous versions). I am not looking for a way to play 
a sound file directly but play the sound that has been configured to 
play in windows (or linux if applicable). Other than fetching the sound 
file set to be played for a particular event manually and playing that 
sound, are there any easier ways.
