Now what is my problem why my sound not play ?
I have to just edit cgi. Cfg file is that enough?
What browser are you using? I couldn't get it to work on Firefox, but it worked fine on Chrome. Every time I loaded the status.cgi page, and a service was in warning state -- it played the sound.

it play a sound every time i click on every item on nagios such as server hostgroups problem and .... and also this wav file is not that file i have selected why ?
As I mentioned, you need to use direct file names not full paths. It isn't expecting a full path.

Yes, this is how it works. It plays a sound if there are any warning / critical alerts on your system at all. When everything is at an OK status, you can leave the browser open and when something switches to warning / critical it'll play the sound as the page refreshes.

So thanks
Now with appear warning alarm will be play just there is a problem with each page refresh the alarm will be play is there any config on nagios core that can config to play alarm if warning appear every 5 min untill problem solve
I don't see any options aside from just specifying the sound files to use, and whether to play sounds. There does not appear to be anything regarding a repeat frequency.
