I'm fairly sure it is DE dependent.  One can make KDE quite noisy by going to "System
Settings-->Common appearance and Behavior-->Application and System Notifications". 
Applications such as T-Bird have their own settings....  My cat managed to enable
that, in the middle of the night, and it took a while to track down the "random beeps".
