Title: Turning off sound when messageboxes pop up
Post by: Calmarius on May 16, 2015, 12:36:54 pm

I'm using Lubuntu with all system sounds disabled. But whenever a popup shows up Code::Blocks it's accompanied with an annoying "bubble pop" sound. Most often this happens when you press "replace all" and a messagebox with info icon pops up telling you the number of replaces.
I tried everything I can find on the internet, so the system should be silent. The same kind of messagebox from other programs doesn't produce sound.

It seems CB disregards system settings and plays event sounds anyway, how can I disable this?

It is a wxwidgets or gtk thing. There is not code in CB to generate this sound specifically.
Can you try another wxwidgets based app and see if the annoying sound are produced from it?

Gnome terminal also does it when I attempt to close it when it does something.

Which wxWidgets API is used in code to create these messageboxes? Probably I can trace down which API is responsible for the sound.

wxMessageBox or cbMessageBox (which probably calls wxMessageBox).
