This is the documented way of disabling the login sound in Natty: https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/ubuntu-help/session-loginsound.html My patch would re-enable the first way; the second way was part of gdmsetup which we didn't port to Oneiric. It was also suggested in #ubuntu-desktop to just mute the alert volume in Sound Settings, but I personally like all of the sound effects except for the login sound. It could be argued that the login sound is a "startup application" and I don't think shipping a completely empty Startup Applications is much better than shipping it with only one item.
