Sep 26, 2016 at 19:21 comment added Pking Regarding it being non-standard. It's somewhat more common in mobile apps - on my phone I get pings on push notifications, when unlocking it, pushing back/home button, etc. In desktop application it could be subtle sounds when something is recorded/submitted, e.g. when pressing CTRL-S for save you might not be sure if you pressed correctly and wonder "did my save register?".
