Annoying beep!
Hello,
I'm have a testing/unstable system and am using KDE. The system beeps from
the PC speaker fairly regularly, although I haven't figured out if it occurs
at a regular interval. I've turned off all sounds in system-notifications in
the Control center, and I know it is the PC speaker because I have turned off
the external ones.
This beep is annoying but I can't figure out what is causing it, it is similar
to the error beep in Konsole.
Here is a list of the processes that are running, maybe that helps. The
beeping seems to have started a few weeks ago. The system never did it
before
Thanks for any suggestions,
Chris
