How to disable beep tone in xfce when the delete button is pressed?
I newly installed xfce on Arch Linux. xfce makes a beep noise every time I press the delete button or backspace, which is really annoying. How can I disable this?
I tried un-commenting set bell-style none, but that didn't work.

Or, to disable the PC speaker globally within one session, the pcspkr kernel module can be unloaded with:
rmmod pcspkr
To prevent its loading by udev at boot, you can blacklist it in a .conf file in /etc/modprobe.d/. For instance:
echo "blacklist pcspkr" > /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
