I have ALREADY tried:
- Within the System Preferences/Accessibility: De-Select Flash the
screen when an alert appears. - Toggling Select then back to De-Select
- While I found the solution to delete:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.universalaccess.plist – 10.8.5
replaced Universal Access with "Accessibility", which has no
apparent equivalent file within the Lib/prefs. If there IS, please
let me know.
I really hate the white flash. REALLY hate it.
BTW: I did do my own research before asking this question, including on this AskDifferent website. The solution found on AskDifferent and other sites only work on older Mac systems (up to ~ 2011). The ones with UniversalAccess.
Thanks, in advance for any useful input.

The plist you listed is the correct one to remove. Remove it and try rebooting, and your problem should be resolved. If not, create a new user account and log into it, and see if the problem persists.
