@Przemyslaw
You have a point but not exactly. Notice that I mentioned disabling other 
sounds than System Ready. Both solutions affect the whole system. These fixes:

sudo -u gdm dbus-launch gconftool-2 --set
/apps/gdm/simple-greeter/settings-manager-plugins/sound/active --type
bool false
or:
sudo -u gdm dbus-launch gconftool-2 --set
/desktop/gnome/sound/event_sounds --type bool false

turn off all sound notifications for GDM which is OK because we don't
run under GDM, but as I mentioned above, if we want to disable the GNOME
Login sound (not System Ready) and we apply the same fix for the running
user then all sound notifications are turned off including Empathy's
since they are integrated with GNOME's.

Whereas renaming the files we do not want to play eradicates ONLY that
sound notification wherever it is used. Indeed all applications that use
this particular notification will not play it anymore. Fortunately the
sound files seem well separated by notification so that problem does not
appear.

Based on the aforementioned premises I advise people to simply rename
the sounds which they do not want to hear and that will leave the other
notifications on.
