I somehow activated the "full battery" alert tone in Ubuntu 18.04, now I want to disable it since my battery has gone faulty and it rings often and is loud too.
How can I remove that tone or how can I disable the service that is looking after battery status and sending a alert that battery is full?
by Default in Ubuntu 18.04,
gsettings for the schema org.gnome.desktop.sound and the key event-sounds is true
pratap@i7:~$ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.sound event-sounds
true
pratap@i7:~$
making the key value to false will stop all the event-sounds..
to stop only the battery-full event-sound..
check the sound theme-name
pratap@i7:~$ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.sound theme-name
'ubuntu'
pratap@i7:~$
List and find if it has battery-full sound file..
pratap@i7:~$ ls /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/

Rename the file battery-full.oga with below command..
sudo mv /usr/share/sounds/Smooth/stereo/battery-full.oga /usr/share/sounds/Smooth/stereo/battery-full.oga.bak
Thats it.. to make a event sound.. it cant find battery-full.oga as it has been renamed as battery-full.oga.bak
