A couple of weeks ago, when I'd open a new page in Firefox, there was a loud sound on my speakers. It sounded a lot like the sound you get when you would press rewind and play on a cassette tape.
Turns out an update to NoScript must have done it. There is option to play a sound when something is blocked. I looked in Tools -> Add-Ons -> NoScript -> Preferences -> Notifications, and sure enough, the notification sound was turned on, and playing the sample gave me the same sound as what I was hearing.

Thank you so much!! My PC started doing this and I was freaking out lol. You're nothing but Awesome for posting and helping me with this!!
Same here. I'm not sure why No-Script turns this strange notification sound on by default, but thank you!

I also want to thank you for posting this! you made my day, i've had this sound for a couple of weeks and i was about to throw my laptop out of my window.. thank you!! :)
The solution that keeps on giving! This was also plaguing me, and I'd already wandered through the about:config to find an answer. I'd almost resigned myself to having that cassette noise greet me for new tabs. Thank you for posting this.
