Is it possible to replace System beep with some pleasant sound?

I like having the terminal alert me with a sound rather than a window flash. I prefer to have a pleasant sound because disabling the beep means missing the command completion and its output on terminal.

I prefer to do this using configuration files rather than GUI.

Well certainly there's a way to alter that. Here's how you can do that:

First collect/download sound files suites your choice.



Open up:



/usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo 

/usr/share/sounds/  



Replace the sound files with your downloaded sound files.

Remember the name and the extension should be the same.
