Public bug reported:

I use Kubuntu (KDE 4.2, Jaunty), and I also have Ubuntu (i.e. Gnome
packages) installed.

When I run GTK apps under KDE, they make various sounds (when clicking
buttons, closing dialogs etc),  For a start, this is just annoying (I
don't know why this is the default).

But there is no way to disable them.  I tried running gnome-sound-
properties and disabling the sounds, but it makes no difference.  (I
have already disabled all KDE sounds).

Some Gnome applications (e.g. totem) don't seem to make these sounds.
Other ones (e.g. gnometris) do, and most GTK apps (e.g. gimp, audacity,
wxWindows apps).  Perhaps these GTK apps are actually linked against
gnome libs, I don't know.

Other people have experienced this bug: http://forum.kde.org/weirdness-
with-gtk-sounds-t-11847.html

(The only peculiarity in my system is I don't have pulseaudio installed
- I manually removed it because it interferes with other apps being able
to play sound.  I doubt this makes a difference to whether these apps
play sounds or not).
