This has annoyed me greatly. After muting and lowering the Alert Volume to the lowest level, and changing /desktop/gnome/sound/event_sound to false, the drum sound still played. Rather than figure out why none of these were working, I decided to just edit the file itself.
In /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/ there are two files that concern this: - dialog-question.ogg - system-ready.ogg -> dialog-question.ogg After renaming the symlink file with sudo mv system-ready.ogg NOsystem-ready.ogg the sound did not play! While this is a really bad and temporary solution, it was the only thing I could do to remove the sound until a better solution came along. -- No GUI to configure/disable login sound https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/437429 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
