Dan,

The "~/.inputrc" measures will only affect Readline. (And only in the 
shells? Only in BASH?) If your Vim is beeping, then you need to tell it in 
its own way: ":set vb" or ":set visualbell".

And neither of those things is going to keep the Cygwin terminal driver 
from doing a speaker beep when a ^G / BEL / 007 character is sent to it. 
E.g., "echo ^V^G" (simulated typing, as it were) will generate a beep and I 
don't think there's a way to prevent that other than disconnecting your 
system's internal beep-speaker.
