Sounds like a sound problem: those buttons trigger a sound.

The stock Unix VM doesn't support sound at all.  If you are using it, set "turn sound off" from the help menu.

However, I have written some basic support for sound in Linux.  It could use some work, but it does make the correct sounds come out.  This is at http://www.cc.gatech.edu/~lex/squeak/sound/.  However, it doesn't support "startPlayingImmediately", so you have to edit the startPlayingImmediately: in SoundPlayer and set "dontInsertSamples" to true instead of false.  (This should probably be made a preference.  Then again, someone should probably implement startPlayingImmediately on Linux!).  This is all explained step-by-step at the above URL, if you are willing to rebuild an image.

Then again this could be something else entirely.
