Can you mute the sound that happens when the audio indicator for muting the tab comes up ?
There is a really annoying chime that comes up when there is an indicator that shows a tab is playing sound. Can you shut this chime off ?

Firefox itself does not make sounds. This could be an add-on.
Separate Issue; Your System Details shows;
Installed Plug-ins
Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 12.1.8.158
Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 12.1.1.151
Having more than one version of a program may cause issues.
You must remove the older programs. Then get the current full installer.
Shockwave Director: Shockwave Standalone Installer / Uninstaller{web link} Shockwave Director Version 12.2.2.172 http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/
I don't have those plugins activated. How would they cause problems ? This just started today. How can I remove them?

Open the link under Shockwave Director above.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?
It's not shockwave that's doing it. I've had that for years now. The chime has only been happening for the last couple of days since I updated to Firefox 43.0. Every 20 seconds or so, it does it. Like right now. I uninstalled shockwave even though it was working perfectly fine, and the chime keeps happening.
it only seems to be happening to one website. Listia.com
