I recently bought an Acer Swift Go 14 OLED (SFG14-73-945T).
Every time I plug in or unplug the charging cable, I hear a loud beep, regardless of the volume.

The problem is that all the solutions online are for Windows, but I'm using Linux.
I've already checked the BIOS settings, but there's no option to disable this sound.

Is there any way to disable this beep without using Windows?

    Here are a few steps you can try to resolve this:

    >Mute System Beep in Linux: Open a terminal. To temporarily mute the system beep, you can use the command: xset -b. To permanently disable it, you can add set bell-style none to your /etc/inputrc file.

    >Check Power Management Settings: Some power management tools in Linux might have settings for notifications or sounds when the power state changes. Check the settings for tools like TLP or your desktop environment's power management settings.

    >Update BIOS: Ensure your BIOS is up to date. Sometimes, firmware updates can resolve such issues. You can download the latest BIOS from the Acer support website and follow the instructions to update it.

    >Kernel Parameters: Sometimes, adding specific kernel parameters can help. You can try adding acpi=off or acpi=noirq to your GRUB configuration to see if it resolves the issue. Be cautious with these changes and ensure you know how to revert them if needed.

    If these steps don't resolve the issue, it might be worth reaching out to Acer support for further assistance, as they might have more specific solutions for your model and Linux setup.
