Patch Request: Disable/Change Swipe Card Up Sound
I know this has been mentioned before, but it always gets ignored. This has been one of my annoyances with webOS, the ability to disable the swipe card up sound; and I know that many other users find this annoying too. Perhaps we could get a patch to disable or at least change the sound?

The sound file is /usr/share/systemsounds/appclose.pcm
All I did (and have to do every time there is an update) to mute it:
Make a new text document on your pc, and rename it to
appclose.pcm
Use WebOS Quick Install > Tools > Send file
Pick your newly created appclose.pcm file and send to
/usr/share/systemsounds/
Reboot and swoosh sound is long gone
Not sure if this is what you want, but in Sounds & Ringtones, setting System Sounds to OFF will turn off the swoosh sound.

Thank you jp22382, this worked wonders!

I probably should have been more clear, I wanted to turn off the swoosh sound, keep the notification sounds. Turning off system sounds would turn off all notification sounds also. Thanks though!

It is a pretty cheesy sound effect.
