Hitting 'v' triggers bell

[lekv]

I noticed that every time I hit 'v' to trigger smart pairs it will ring the bell in vim. I also checked @gorkunov's vim config and he has "set novb", which disables the bell globally. Is there a way to silence the bell for smartpairs without disabling the bell globally? Thanks :)

[gorkunov]

@lekv why do you need bell in vim? :)

[Glench]

I'm also getting this and I have noerrorbells and novisualbell set. Do you know why this is happening and if there's anyway to stop it? This plugin is absolutely perfect except for the bell.

@Glench could you share what version of vim do you use? My guess that bell sounds produced by some tricky combination of commands that smartpairs runs during selection. I'll try to find source of the issue later this month. Probably it also possible to turn off bell locally during selection operation inside plugin...

[gorkunov]

As temporary solution you can disable bell for vim:

" disable bell sound
set noerrorbells 
set novisualbell
set t_vb=
if has('autocmd')
    autocmd! GUIEnter * set vb t_vb=
endif
