I don't think this will have anything to do with the shutdown beep, however it looks like some may just have the problem of disabling the system bell all together.
It may be important to note that if any of you are using Compiz, you will have to disable the system bell through the "CompizConfig Settings Manager" under the General->General Options->General tab, uncheck "Audible Bell". -- intrepid: gnome-sound-properties no longer allows enabling/disabling of system beep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/282906 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
