Yes, I have turned system sounds off. n.b., I did this very early on
in Paul's UniAud project. Because not having system sounds has not
been a major problem for me, I've not tried to go back to 'ON'...
I attempted to upgrade to 1.9.22, but it kept locking my system. So I
went back to the last 'relatively' stable levels that still provided
decent sound.
This is not to say that I don't get hangs occasionally. But, almost
all of the hangs occur when PMMail automatically retrieves a message
from two [or more] accounts at the same time and tries to play an alert
sound for each message. I've also had lock ups if I am playing a
video/audio and a message comes in. UniAud just seems to have a
problem with simultaneous audio streams. Other than this, these files
seem to be OK.
The two files that I currently use:

BTW, I am using ACPI with two CPs and the following specs in
