Not meant to be facetious and condescending, but I see why you might think that. I apologize, and I was simply providing another direction, and one that I really use. It doesn't 'sort-of work', it's effective, but it's also not a fix. I work in a service shop, and just cover the speakers at boot. It only takes a couple of moments. I've been working with Macs for 15 years, and there have been a few Macs that have a fixed-level boot chime. I guess this is one more.
As an extra added bonus, palms down on the speaker grills also dims the display, and the keyboard backlighting comes on. It's how I test that function.
