Public bug reported:
There is still the annoying PC beep at shut down, I stopped it with this
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf, then placed this – blacklist
pcspkrat – at the bottom and saved and rebooted. Beep gone.
Did some checking and found it seemed to stem from Fast User Switch
Applet.
I have tracked down the fast-user-switch-applet_2.24.0 that changed from quiet
to annoying beep. It was
fast-user-switch-applet_2.24.0-0ubuntu8_i386.deb,
Intrepidfast-user-switch-applet loaded into jaunty RC
fast-user-switch-applet_2.24.0-0ubuntu6_i386.deb worked well no count down as
you expect and no loud beep.
Jaunty RC
fast-user-switch-applet_2.24.0-0ubuntu7_i386.deb had a slight glitch on first
load up but was fine after that no count down and no beep.
fast-user-switch-applet_2.24.0-0ubuntu8_i386.deb - annoying beep, no count down
and loud Beep
fast-user-switch-applet_2.24.0-0ubuntu9_i386.deb - annoying beep

What you expected to happen: to use the fast switch applet to shut down pc or
laptop without the loud pc speaker beep
What happened instead: If you shit down brfore the cout down is over it swill
beep and if you leave it it still beeps at the end of the shut down.
