Lets see, you know enough how to set up audio for running FT8 
(wsjt-x) but not enough to disable alert tones??

Actually my solution is easier: I have a separate computer for 
running my ham radio programs so never need to hear that computer 
"burp".  Internet and e-mail done on a separate computer where I can 
enable sound if I want (most of the time speaker is cancelled).  I 
have a FM radio for music.  Occasionally, I want to hear audio with a 
video and enable speaker for that.

Currently using the soundcard (Realtek) in the computer  for digital 
modes (but not very satisfactory as gain is not leveled and has a lot 
of noise below 200-Hz).  Eventually will get my new A/D going (UADC4) 
which will drive with baseband audio from my LP-Pan(SDR) running on 
the K3 1st IF.

With my old winXP computer I used a emu0202 soundcard or a Delta44 
(but neither are supported by win10).

Now run two Dell Inspiron i5 with separate monitors.
