Omit the Exclamation icon, or disable exclamation sound in system settings.

Disabling the sound if fine if it is your own machine, but do not
disable it on other user's machines. They have purposely added that
ding in their sound settings and it is not proper for you to override
their wishes.

Better to just omit the Exclamation icon so the ding does not occur.
