... > How do I tell KDE apps to avoid playing sounds on notifications? Running xfce on jessie, I solved that annoyance by moving the offending sound file out of the way. In my case, /usr/share/sounds/KDE-Sys-Warning.ogg would blast from the speakers when akregator (RSS reader) came across an expired site certificate. You could do something similar, or change permissions, for the whole kde sound file directory. A more proper method may exist, but simple works fine. Regards, Ralph
