It's now 2 weeks later, I've asked in 2 different newsgroups, poked around every possible place on the net and still don't know how to permanenty disable the sound in X. How can Linux ever become a contender in the desktop marked if such a simple thing can't be accomplished?!?

Not sure these are "correct" solutions, but for the terminal bell, from man bash (search for bell):
bell-style (audible) Controls what happens when readline wants to ring the terminal bell. If set to none, readline never rings the bell. If set to visible, readline uses a visible bell if one is available. If set to audible, readline attempts to ring the terminal's bell.
And how about moving/deleting the sound device file(s) for everything else? On my 2.4.27 sarge system and old sound card, sound is /dev/dsp.
Or you could keep the sound mixer controls muted. Hope this helps.
