Yes, there is an "Alert volume" slider with "Mute" button. I didn't
realize that you were referring to this when you said "system bell" ---
I didn't know that they were the same thing. My apologies. It's true
that this slider has no effect on the volume of the sound that gets
played when the workaround ("pactl upload-sample..." and "xset b 100")
is applied.
Regarding the workaround, I have since discovered that "pactl upload-
sample /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/glass.ogg bell.ogg" has to
go in ~/.xprofile and "xset b 100" has to go in ~/.bashrc.
