hahaha. That's a good one. Seriously?

So the default behavior for an LTS release is going to be to play an annoying (and often very loud) drum sound on startup (and at every user switch), and when the user selects "No Effects" from the System Settings Sound menu, it won't actually honor that setting? On top of that, the only way to disable it is to create some cryptic config file that will be beyond the capabilities of many users? This has been a recurring usability issue for at least the past 4 releases. Every release, the login sound comes back and there is a new and more convoluted way to disable it.
