[Ashiya]

Hello,

I have some problems when I shut down my laptop
My laptop make a beep sound its like I force a shutdown.
It's same sound while I press power on/off for a long time,
It's seems that my laptop shut down in a brutal way.

Debian, Ubuntu don't have this problems...

You probably need to blacklist your PC Speaker. You can try the help here:

Disable system beep on logout:
go to /etc/modprobe.d/pc-speaker.conf

See if in there it has:

blacklist snd-pcsp
blacklist pcspkr

check the file
/etc/default/grub
whether the line is commented out

Code: Select all

GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1"

Code: Select all

#GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1"

Since this thread is not too old I'm giving it a bump as I have the exact same problem. I checked the suggestions above and the file has sound blacklisted as Eadwine suggests, and hashed out as male mentions, but I still get a loud beep when I click on logout.
Any help appreciated.

What kernel are you using?

Code: Select all

uname -r

Quick System Info would probably help as well.

If I remove 'prompt at logout' the beep disappears, but I don't really want it to always logout, sometimes I want the shutdown option.
Edit: tried doing this and just using an action button set to shutdown and it still beeps :(

Good sleuthing! Look at websearch result on "xfce prompt at logout beep" -- you're not the first!

I tried that 'xset b off' and it had no effect. I can hold the power button and it shuts off without a beep. I found a startup setting for 'beep on startup' and disabled that to no effect. I think I had this problem awhile back on this computer and found a solution, but my searches are bringing me no joy so far :(
