Hi,

How? To replicate it, you have to make an enduring change to the system
and then reboot, and of course the live environment is running off read-
only media.

I had reason recently to do a fresh install 11.10 briefly and I'm about 90% sure the same problem *did* occur, but there's that 10% uncertainty. Similarly I believe 11.04 has the problem as well.

Title:
  "No sounds" should disable even the login sound

Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gdm

  If a user goes to System | Preferences | Sound and chooses the "No
  sounds" theme, they are expressing a very clear preference: Don't play
  sounds. But gdm plays the login sound (the drums) anyway, making the
  user hunt down the System | Administration | Login Screen dialog where
  there's a "Play log-in sound" checkbox (thanks to the fix for
  #437429).

  gdm should not play the login sound when the user has said "no sounds"
  in the Sound preferences.
