Is it just me? When clicking on any Finder or other "alias" that has been dragged to the dock, I get a system notification sound when the window opens. I don't remember ever hearing that before. Is it just me? If so, any idea how to get rid of that? (could try trashing the com.systemsound plist that will regenerate if deleted?) I thought it was just Finder alias's, but I notice it also happened on a "Forklift" app alias. Only happens when launching form the dock. Same alias anywhere else doesn't "ping" a sound. Odd . . . . :confused:

Also using symbolic links instead of alias links fix the issue.
