Ubuntu – Disable KDE sounds in GNOME Ubuntu

audiognomekatekdeUbuntu

I use kate (a KDE text editor) under GNOME in Ubuntu. Since Natty upgrade, it plays miscellaneous sounds on error and other notifications.

I disabled sound notifications in GNOME, but kate sounds are still played. Kate itself doesn't seem to have any sound configuration, and I can't find any KDE configuration tool in the system menus.

How can I disable KDE notification sounds in a GNOME Ubuntu?

Best Answer

Install KDE settings package sudo apt-get install systemsettings. Then open it up and go to Application and System Notifications, Player Settings tab, set No audio output.
