 It's really annoying.

per user:
--
less .inputrc
set bell-style none 

logout then in again and 
;-)

for system wide settings

add 'set bell-style none' to /etc/inputrc

xset -b



Thanks.  Is there some way I can incorporate this into X?

Like /etc/X11/Xsession.d/

Open the box, unplug the speaker.

Do it once and for all, even if you reinstall, and will work across
all your OSes and apps.

Won't a simple unload of the 'pcspkr' module take care of the problem?

Yes, this method is much more effective than the X-related ones.

  modprobe -r pcspkr
  echo blacklist pcspkr  /etc/modprobe.d/local
