Hi. I recently tried to use Arduino to upload a config to my saber. I have the latest version of Arduino and ProffieOS; I have the Proffie Arduino plug-in; and I used Zadig to update my board’s usb driver in DFU mode. I upload the config and it shows the percentages, so I assume it’s normal. I now, for some reason, have this weird little jingle play every time I switch sound fonts, and also my motion controls don’t seem to work.
It doesn’t matter for this, but, FWIW, this is nebulous and never useful to anyone in online discussions about versions.
I assume you hear this in addition to the usual font sound. Does it sound like “Voicepack not found”, “Font directory not found”, or “Error in font directory”?
Usually this is because you need a “common” folder with menu sounds. For the latter case, watching the Serial Monitor for errors is your best friend.
Your new config you uploaded probably doesn’t have them enabled.
I’m guessing you have #define DISABLE_TALKIE in your config file to save memory?
If so, the jingle is probably one of these:

The one that might be the closest is “Error in the font directory.” I’m rather new at this so I’m not sure how to fix this.
Check the serial monitor (ProffieOS Documentation: Serial Monitor) It should tell you more about what the problem is.
Second, if it is error in font directory, then you need to use the “effects” command to identify what files are missing. Note that if you have #define DISABLE_DIAGNOSTIC_COMMANDS, in your config file, the “effects” command will not be available, so you would need to remove that.
Although, there is also a new error in voice pack (which has not been added to the beep code page yet.), which would indicate that you have a voice pack that is too old for the prop you are using. (Or no voice pack at all.)
I did see the “error in voice pack version” in the serial monitor. Is there a way I can update it?
I downloaded one of the packs and the beeping is gone. Thanks everyone all your help!
