When a new tab opens, there is a "slurping" sound. Drives my wife crazy. How do I disable this sound?

Recently, Firefox has started passing a "slurping" sound to the speakers whenever a new tab is opened. My wife finds this very annoying. Is there some setting I can make to make it stop doing this?

Sounds like the blocked scripts sound from NoScript.

NoScript Options > Notifications = Audio feedback when scripts are blocked - un-check that preference
