disable bell in pluma editor

Question

I'm trying out the Pluma editor in Ubuntu Mate. I like it but cannot find a Preferences option to turn off the bell.

Is this option somewhere else? I don't see a commandline option either.

Thank you.

Go into sound preferences to turn off all system sounds, just choose the No sound theme.

That will also turn off all application sounds – userDepth Oct 20 '17 at 21:56
On Mate 17.10, Pluma 1.18.2 : – Stephen Boston Oct 20 '17 at 22:25
With Mate 17.10, the mute toggle for Alert Volume on the Sound Effects Panel and the mute toggle for Output Volume on the Main Panel have the same effect. No bell from Pluma, no system sounds. AND curiouser still, selecting No Sounds disables system sounds but permits the bell in Pluma. From what you say this is not expected behavior. – Stephen Boston Oct 20 '17 at 22:44
Could it be that Pluma is making the sound? – userDepth Oct 21 '17 at 00:04

That must be it. GEdit (sibling or parent -- what's the term) has the same behavior and also lacks a Preference option to turn it off. I understand that many people like the feature but enough dislike it to make a good case for an off-switch. – Stephen Boston Oct 21 '17 at 00:36
