I wish this was more like Windows 7. See "Play Windows Startup Sound" : http://neartalk.com/ss/2015-06-08_004_1294x554.png

They will not disable the "successful login" and "logout" sounds. Go to Settings -> Sounds and set the sound theme to "no sounds" to disable these. 1) Disable all sounds for the login screen via gconf $ sudo su gdm -c "gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/sound/event_sounds --type bool false" -OR- 2) Rename the system-ready.ogg sound file $ sudo mv -v /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/system-ready.ogg{,.disabled} ============== BUG ============== When you log into Karmic using a Gnome session, you get a drum sound. There are many situations where you need a silent boot process, but it appears that this is impossible under Karmic. In Jaunty and previous, you could configure gdm to log you in silently. This configuration has been removed from Karmic. Even opening Sound Preferences and choosing "No sounds" for "Sound theme" or disabling window and button sounds does not prevent the login sound from occurring. Users must have the ability to login silently.
