Nope. External speakers to the max. Not a peep.

I don't have a registry hack and I doubt you will have much luck finding
one related to a specific sound event but something else to check is the
possibility that the sound is playing but you're missing it. This
particular sound is quite soft and easily missed. I had to turn up the
volume quite a bit on my physical speakers in order to hear that sound.
Also, if you have not already done so, you should check the drivers for
your soundcard. Initial Vista compatible driver releases from soundcard
manufacturers often only supported basic functions and even current
drivers seem to be lacking in some capabilities.
Next thing to check would be the soundcard manufacturer's website for the
latest Vista compatible drivers and check for any disclaimers that certain
functions might be disabled as this would fall into that category. Check
Device Manager to be sure you have no red or yellow warnings there; Control
Panel\System\Device Manger under Tasks.
If nothing there, look for errors in Event Viewer under Administrative
Tools.
Another possibility is something on your system is the source of the issue
but trying to source that issue is a trial and error process of removing
items one by one. If you happen to have an image of your base setup, image
your current setup, save it, then restore the base image and see if the
sound plays. If yes, then something you are installing on the system is the
likely source.
All that said, it really appears, to me anyway, to be a driver issue.
