Bug 331589 is the part which uses the PC speaker on random events, like in gnome-terminal (which can be influenced by GNOME) and system shutdown (which is outside of GNOME). This one will be fixed for Jaunty (fix committed already). I leave this for the does not use nice pulseaudio X11 sound. **

Yep, just acquired my first Linux machine this week - a System76 Pangolin Performance - these beeps are startling! I, too, was able to un-check the Play alert sound and have relief from the obnoxious, angry beeping (each time I backspace one-too-many-times) Being new to Linux Ubuntu... all of

Fwiw, I see exactly what Scoot sees (err... hears) on Jaunty. A very harsh, loud beep instead of the pleasant sound from the theme: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=b93fbbb2e5dcf9271d4b078ca1b4abd99b6b854d However, I can use System/Preferences/Sound and uncheck 'Play alert sound' on the Sounds

Daniel, here's the output of alsa-info.sh: http://www.alsa- project.org/db/?f=b51c0521b6302c0ed1bef4fcd755426f98d03a33 If I run pavucontrol all I see are system sounds for playback and HDA Intel ALC 268 Analog for playback devices. Pressing mute on either (or both) doesn't stop the beeps. --

In Jaunty, when I use the applet to disable the system alert, the pc speaker beeps (from eg the terminal) stop. But when I enable them, the pc speaker plays instead of the nice Gnome sound that I can hear if I hit the play button in the applet. -- Annoying system beep plays instead of alert

To eliminate lower layers in the audio stack as culprits, you should attach output from running http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh. This should be required for all audio bugs. Make sure you also check the streams under pavucontrol to see they're being sent to the correct sink (if you have

I am seeing this problem on Jaunty, and it is *EXTREMELY* annoying (even more annoying than people who feel the need to write in all caps). I'm surprised my ear drums have not burst yet (I'm not kidding). This sound is what I imagine I would hear if I were to stick my tongue into a 240V socket,
