ToggleKeys and no sound by jw
I was reading about ToggleKeys and it sounded like a good idea, so I enabled it. But when I toggle any of those keys, there's no sound, just a very dim click. I have external speakers, and they are turned on and working. Is there something more I have to do to get the sound?
