The system beep/bell happens frequently (ie, when I type a few letters then type tab to autocomplete when there are a few options).
How can I turn this off?
I googled it and tried:
set bell-style none (the command went through but nothing changed) and
setterm -blength 0 (got a bash command not found) Thanks!

The simplest way to turn off this noise quickly is by editing the /etc/inputrc file. You can use nano or your preferred text editor to open the file with root permissions. In this file, you should see the bell-style directives, which will need to be edited. Specifically, uncomment the following line.
Add set bell-style none to .inputrc in your home directory. You need to start a new shell for this to take effect; that may be why your test didn't work.
