We can politely ask Valve to remove their ear-raping sound from the game.. or they can at least add some kind of anti-spam to it. So if it pops up often, the sound just stops playing. Or a client-side cvar.

This isn't what you are looking for but... for my community I made a blank hintbox... Just follow the steps below and no more annoying sound!

Hint Box Sound Removal.

To disable to hint boxes swoosh sound I made a blank sound file and its really easy to install. Just unzip the zip file and then put the sound folder in your /steam/steamapps/username/counter-strike source/cstrike/ folder and you won't get the sound anymore. Enjoy!

Zip File Is Here.

It's a feature, actually.

All I can do is make three threads about it (thanks for the reply Berni ) on the Steam Powered forums, if you guys could as well I'm sure this would be resolved a lot faster.

EDIT: My Threads/Posts if you guys want to comment on them there, that would be great.
