Being primarily a GNOME/MATE screen reader user, I may be way off base here, but there are some cases where I still hear a system bell, which is generally replaced by a sound when using Pulseaudio. Some of these cases include backspacing on an empty line in a text box or arrowing down past the end of shell history in a terminal. Alerts of this kind seem important to me, in order to give me an idea of where I am at times. I can see where a visual system bell replacement would be important to deaf users in the same way, although they are probably better able to see cursors and such. Still, there are some bell alerts that may not be immediately apparent without some sort of visual feedback. Hope this helps. -- "Don't judge my disability until you are able to see my ability." ~Kyle: https://kyle.tk/ My chunk of the internet: https://chunkhost.com/r/Kyle
