[MlMt] sound notifications in Sierra

[Ted Byfield]

Ah, yes, forgot to mention that as well. I had the same problem with 
Sierra turning on UI sound effects, and I quickly turned them off. Not 
sure why, but I had also set the volume slide for "blow" to zero (and 
that one keeps going in Mailmate), whereas I hadn't done that to "glass" 
(which had stopped after some fiddling around).

Three separate UIs for turning off sound notifications, bleh -- feels 
like Windows back when dinosaurs roamed the earth.

But thank you for the tip -- it feels like a hack, but it worked. 👍

Cheers,
T
