T-Mobile MDA Vario 3 - USB Sound problem

[Guest SnooziSuzi]

Hi all,

I am new to this forum and may not be posting in the right area, forgive me and move me on if necessary!

I have a Vario 3, it's a couple of years old (am due to upgrade in July, but until then I need my problem diagnosed and sorted).

When I have the phone plugged into USB to use Active Sync (to sync the phone with my tasks and calendar) no sounds will play, only vibrate.

This is more annoying than having the sounds because the vibrate is so loud it causes a nuisance in the office.

I need the phone connected throughout the day because I am a PA and I need to make sure my phone matches my calendar in real time.

Is there a setting I can change to force it to play external sounds when connected to the PC please?

Thanks in advance,

Su
