I should have proof-read what I wrote before posting. Here it is again: Sebastien, it looks like this isn't working. I have "Play alert sound" unticked which means "Alert sound" is dimmed. I've got "Visual Alert" on "Flash window" and the beeping still occurs. I then tried enabling "Play Alert Sound" and disabling "Alert sound", beeps still occur. I then tried disabling the entire thing by unchecking "Play alerts and sound effects" and ... keeps beeping!
Finally, I went into the gconf-editor and checked that "audible bell" was disabled and it was. I exited gconf-editor and it doesn't beep anymore. Maybe gconf-editor does a rehup of some process which makes the changes take effect? -- 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 Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
