He is talking about the little sound clip that plays when the phone begins charging.

You can switch your phone on silent or in the settings set system sounds to 0 or off.

It doesn't make the noise if you set it on silent profile, but that's not really the solution you wanted, is it?

marcdxn: switch to silent -profile before inserting charger, then normal profile back.
That's something I do (when I remember)

Rename the file /usr/share/sounds/ui-charging_started.wav.

I like the sound, because sometimes my N900 does not start charging when I plug it and I can (not) hear it. By plugging again, it starts charging.

If the wav/au/*-file can be found on the filesystem, it can be replaced with a silence or maybe with an empty file.

Thanks for the fix works a charm - Visual indication with orange led blink / battery charge icon is enough for me.

Noise gets annoying when doing a lot of usb plugins at the desktop thanks.
