Despite the fact that Ubuntu has yet to clearly define an audience for
the default design, the following assumptions can probably be made
relatively easily:

1) Ubuntu's technology base tends to attempt and attract users who might be 
familiar with the more mainstream operating systems available.
2) Ubuntu, in terms of press and coverage, is often heralded as an operating 
system to 'change' to from your current commercial operating system.

To this end, considering that both commercial mainstream operating
systems use system sounds and other audio feedback related devices, it
would be absolutely absurd to suggest the default sound events to be
turned off.

Remember, when people lay down blanket statements such as 'most people',
they are actually dealing with a specific audience.  Ubuntu as well,
although its design parameters have yet to embrace this fully, deals
with an implied audience.

Sincerely,
TJS
