GTK+ uses canberra to play event sounds (on errors dialogs etc).

It isn't serious at all and can be fixed by installing the canberra
library.
          Suppose one doesn't like the squawks that are emitted when e.g.
          a typing mistake is made, or a file isn't found.  Can one
          dis-install, or disable canberra, without otherwise messing up
          the sound?
