Weird Sounds from Firefox (Edgy)

New behaviour from Firefox now that I've done my "upgrade" to Edgy: when
I close or switch tabs it sometimes issues a weird "whistle" sound.
It's not happening 100% of the time -- more like 80% -- which is weird,
but it is always associated with some kind of Firefox + tabs scenario.

Googling for it got me lots of pages talking about getting sound under
Firefox for YouTube and the like, but no reports of sound on Firefox
events.  System settings have all sounds disabled but for login and
logout.  Nothing in Firefox's preferences gives any hint about sounds.

What's the next step for getting rid of this annoying sound?
