sloppily disable feedback sound

Yes, indeed, that would be my suggestion.


This made me realize that this is indeed a pavucontrol effect. I had another
look and indeed found where in the sources it does this. It uses libcanberra
for the feedback sound, which might explain why comment 2 reports that it's
gone on KDE - does KDE use canberra?

I've attached a simple patch that simply disables the feedback sound. It's not
a proper solution, of course, but might benefit someone in the interim.


One interesting bug I've encountered with the feedback sound is that on local
systems, it plays back the sound every 2 seconds or so, but on a network PA
server attached via module-tunnel-sink, there is no such timeout. It sounds
like *popopopopopopop* whenever I change the volume on remote sinks.
