[gentoo-user] strange beeps from windows

[Thufir]

I almost strictly use GNOME, and since configuring ALSA notice this 
annoyance that many events from Pidgin cause "beeps" through the speakers 
(when Pidgin starts and it auto-joins an IRC channel or someone addresses 
a message to me, or IM's me, etc.).  The "beeps" also are caused by non-
Pidgin events, it's just that Pidgin is the worst offender.  These 
"beeps" are through the soundcard/speaker, it's different from the 
"system beep".

I've disabled many beeps and tried many permutations of the sound 
configurations within GNOME to no avail.  It has to be something 
available through the GNOME GUI?



thanks,

Thufir
