How do I turn off the sound when an error message pops up?
There is an anoying sound when an error message pops up in FF. I looked in the preferences but there doesn't seem to be an option to disable it.

Settings may have changed in a couple years in Ubuntu but this gives an idea of where to look.
Firefox itself does not have such sound notifications.

maybe try to disable error sound in Windows/OS Sound preferences not sure if FF has its setting regarding error sounds
This is on Linux and not Windows but you are on right track.

I don't think there is an error sound in Firefox unless its from an Add-on. What is the error reported?
First time using ubuntu. Maybe i did something, but there is an annoying error sound in ff that I can't get rid of.
only happens when there is an error.
There is no option in ff and I just looked in ubuntu's sound (gui).
