Stopping the Soundscheme Daemon

The most convenient way to stop the Soundscheme Audio Server is to deselect the Desktop Sounds button on the Desktop Settings control panel.

Alternately, you can log in as root and issue the command:

killall /usr/sbin/soundscheme

To eliminate the Soundscheme Server when you next reboot, use the command:

chkconfig soundscheme off

This directs the system not to run the soundscheme daemon. You can also stop the soundscheme daemon by editing the Xsession.dt file as described for the Background daemon.

If you disable the soundscheme daemon, the user will get no audio cues when events take place on their systems. For instance, saving a new file does not result in a ''beep'' and moving an icon on the background is not accompanied by a ''cymbal swish'' sound.
