[chuck-users] Stop Beeping at Me

[Philip Davidson]

Windows (XP at least)
control panel -> 'sounds and audio devices' -> 'sounds'
Choose the Sound Scheme, 'No Sounds'

This will stop _most_ system and system-oriented applications (MSVC6, 
Word) from generating alert noises and the like. obviously you gotta 
turn off iTunes yourself ( unless that is your livecoding software of 
choice )

on that note, if anyone has suggestions on turning off popup and overlay 
notification in windows entirely, please have at it.

Is there functionality (any platform) along the lines of an 'audio 
firewall' that restricts soundcard access to a set of named or approved 
applications?
