This is something that appears to be a new feature.

In xfce4-terminal's settings' "Advanced" tab I found an "Audible Bell" that shuts this off.

But ^G in emacs was still yapping away. I finally found "System Sounds" in audio mixer and turned out the volume of this.

But, somewhere, there must be a setting that let's you pick the actual audio bell that gets played, but I haven't found it. This is something that xfce might be inheriting from Gnome.

I haven't had much success finding this elusive setting. Several of my systems with the XFCE desktop are behaving this way. grepping in ~/.config didn't find anything useful. The only way to mitigate this behavior is still to turn down "System Sounds" volume in the audio mixer.

I have a sneaky suspicion that XFCE inherited this from Gnome. There must be a Gnome configuration knob for this, if you're running the Gnome desktop; but this is not configurable in XFCE. You get this annoying drip sounds, similar to one of the annoyances from the old "Doggone Tired" MGM short, and no way to change it to something less annoying.
