Nominating for Gnome-Desktop, since this issue appears to be system-wide
throughout Gnome. With "Play Alert Sound" enabled in Preferences ->
Sound, ALL applications that generate an alert causes the system beep to
be used instead of the user-defined alert sound, even if the chosen
sound is valid.

This is the 21st century. The ONLY time system beep should ever be used
is when the normal sound system (OSS, ALSA, whatever) has completely
failed and the system has no other means of indicating alerts.
