How do I turn off the startup sound on my Xperia tablet?

Ever since the last update, my tablet plays an annoying little jingle.

I looked everywhere in the settings, nothing. 

I downloaded the manual, nothing.

Im ready to throw the thing, but I love it too much.

Someone please tell me how to end this madness!

Thank you

Thanks for the link Alexdon,

I just spoke with them and they informed me that the issue is with the Android version.

Apparently there were several issues with the update.

Google is working on a resolution & will release a patch when they are available.

Thanks for everyone's input.

you can not change that, but then again, you don't have to turn off your tablet everyday

Sony makes you believe!  After preesiing the power button hide your tablet z under you bed or leave your tablet and go to your next room and close the door and make believe there is no sound Slightly_smiling_Face

This is unacceptable. I turn it off when I charge it.

Sony needs to give us the OPTION to at least change the sound.

At least that way I could select 'none' (as with ALL notifications)

What if you set the tablet on silent,does the sound still play?

Creative suggestion, but how would I do that (before) it powered up? Alchemy? LOL I honestly JUST noticed the mod's avatar after posting hahaha. But seriously, this is very annoying. It wasn't like this before the last update & NEEDS to be removed or implement an option to shut off.
