As discussed on the mailing list, I would propose to move the login sound option to the "Universal Access>Seeing" panel because its main utility at the moment is notifying the user that the machine is ready to accept inputs. The sound could be disabled by default but automatically enabled at the first boot after the installation or if a sight related accessibility profile is selected.

However this is just a hack. Here is the discussion on the ayatana mailing list. I agree startup applications is not something that you would use frequently and the only item inside is the "Gnome Login Sound" (which i also believe is not the correct place for it either, as i was looking how to disable startup sound a few days ago in more logical places like user accounts or sounds but did not find it , so i had to do an online instructions search...). "Agree, that's a terrible place for the login sound - it's a hack surfaced to the user. Please file a bug." Mark I propose that it being integrated into the sound menu or the user accounts menu as an option.
