Windows Calendar Reminders

Vista's Windows Calendar does not play sound for Reminders, even though
I've checked that option & assigned a sound through Control
Panel>Sounds.

The Reminders DO show when Calendar is not running, popping up
-_behind_- all other open windows… That's a bit too subtle: I'd prefer
they gave me an audible yoo-hoo to catch my attention.

I have no problem assigning or hearing sounds for any other program
except Calendar.

Is there a magic trick, secret handshake, etc., that's required to
activate the sound for Calendar?

The magic trick is in Options under File

Been there, done that... That was the first thing I tried, & it
didn't/doesn't work.

Perhaps I should have worded my original post more specifically. When
I stated that I had *-checked that option,-* I of course meant that I
did so via -File>Options>Play sound for Reminders-.

I've tried everything I could think of. Vista tends to hide what used
to be simple user functions: that's why I'm still hoping to discover the
magic trick to this one.

At this point, I'd be happy if I could just get the Calendar Reminders
to pop up in *-front -*of other windows, instead of hiding in the
background!
