When I hit F11 or F12 (volume up and volume down) I get the volume control overlay; the volume increases or decreases; and the machine makes an "SQUICK SQUICK SQUICK" noise.
How do I keep the functionality of the keys but stop them making that noise?

Have you tried Change Keyboard Type in System Preferences -> Keyboard?
Yes. If you open System Preferences (found in /Applications/Utilities, or select it from the Menu) and choose the Sound pane, there is a checkbox at the bottom of the Sound Effects tab which controls the default behavior (content edited out of image). The shift key overrides this, so if you uncheck the box holding shift will play the sound instead.

You can change this in System Preferences.
Go to the Sound pane, and uncheck the
Play feedback when volume is changedcheckbox.Also, if you want to not play the sound for a given change (a one-off thing), hold down shift and change the volume.
This will also play the sound if it's turned off.
