Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

"System Beep" (named audible bell in /apps/metacity/general section of
gconf) is enabled by default in all ubuntu version including current
jaunty alpha release. However, since gnome-mixer-applet 2.25.*, there is
no way to turn it off except editing gconf with "gconf-editor".

That's a problem because System beep is generally not needed because
people does have complete sound support and because system beep is scary
for most users.

According to this, I think that something like the following suggestions
should be done :

1. Disable "system beep by default" in gconf?
2. Automatically disable "system beep" with gnome-mixer-applet if no sound 
device is working?
