How to switch of the drum sound (at login) for ubuntu 16.04?

Question

I installed ubuntu tweaks but this seems not to have a possibility to switch off the drum sound. What else can I try?

Answer 1

Ubuntu Tweaks should have that possibility

You need to open the Tweak Tab and select the "Login Settings" option. There you can see the Play Login Sound option select with the possibility for on/off. Note: You need to click on the unlock button first to be able to change the Play Login Sound option.

A non-Tweaks option is:

gksudo gedit /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/50_unity-greeter.gschema.override

Insert following lines:

[com.canonical.unity-greeter]
play-ready-sound = false

Save and run following command:

sudo glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/
