Take a look at this screenshot, comparing Ubuntu 15.04 to Windows 7 (regarding
Sound Effects):
http://neartalk.com/ss/2015-06-08_004_1294x554.png
Notice that Windows 7 simply has a check box for Play . . . Startup
Sounds, and you don't have to install a 3rd party tweak-tool to
achieve this.
Couldn't gnome-session-canberra be changed from a depend to a recommend
in ubuntu-desktop? That way those users who prefer silence could simply
remove the package.

In case anyone else finds this bug before a solution, I believe it's
possible to turn down or mute the volume on the greeter screen and the
setting will be persistent. There was a bug with this but it's reported
fixed.

I've marked precise as wont fix since it seems very unlikely that a
fix would be backported that far. It's certainly desirable for this
feature to exist, though there are some technical difficulties in the
way gsettings / unity-greeter work.

this is defenitly not solved. theres still no user configurable option.
is it really that difficult to add a checkbox in sound settings to set a
dconf key?

It seems ubuntu-tweak has an option to disable login sound so it is more
user friendly then compile glib schemas. Have not tried it yet myself
but it shall work.

It seems a lack of planning when adding 'features'...

Added my branch, pls review it.
It uses a config file instead of GSettings(easier to change values) and it also
fixes bug #970024.

@Tpugliese - it's not in System Settings, it's in dconf. You have to:
1. Ensure you have unity-greeter 0.2.8-0ubuntu1 installed
2. Creating a file called: /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/50_unity-
greeter.gschema.override
3. Place in this file:

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

Tpugliese - the 'No Effects' option affects settings on a personal user
level, not a system level (such as for example the start-up sound when
you've logged in).

Thanks for the tips, guys. Ranting aside, I appreciate the effort. My
main source of frustration probably stems from the number of times I've
run into this over the past few years. Each release, I have to google
for an answer and most of the posts to the Ubuntu forums relate to
earlier releases
