Bug Description
The login prompt and post-login sound effects offer nothing to the user experience, they are often unwanted, and there is no way to mute adjust the volume before they play for the first time. My speakers are very loud. I never turn the volume above 10%. The sound defaults to 50%, so that first startup sound blasts at a very uncomfortable volume. I hear people accidentally play these sounds in lecture halls sometimes if they reboot and forget to mute the speakers first. These sounds are useless. No one would miss them.
