Public bug reported: I'm sitting, listening to music, wearing earbuds. Suddenly a system beep comes along. BEEP! It apparently does not care about my volume settings. I should sue someone for temporary and possibly permanent hearing loss.
On a slightly more serious note though; Come on... It's an annoyance for over 90% of the users out there. We don't care if we press backspace or tab once more than required. Stop BEEPing us. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- pcspkr isn't default in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist https://launchpad.net/bugs/60826 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
