How to disable completely audible beeps?

Hi,
I am using the IdeaVim plugin. When I am in normal mode and I press the Esc key, there is a very annoying audible beep. How can I disable all beeps please?
Check that IdeaVim has found and parsed your .vimrc. Run ":set" in the normal mode, you should see "visualbell" there if it's set. Try ":set visualbell" in the normal mode. It should work for the current session.
If I disable the bell from within AppCode it works, but just for the session. If I close AppCode and reopen it it doesn't work. And I am sure that IdeaVim doesn't load my .vimrc file...
You should put "set visualbell" to your ~/.vimrc file, see ":help visualbell".
This doesn't seem to work. I disabled all beeps in vim and they are still there in AppCode...

What's your OS and where is your .vimrc located on the file system?
I am using OS X Mountain Lion and my .vimrc is in my home directory (~)
Please paste an excerpt from your .vimrc where you define 'visualbell'.
autocmd VimEnter * set visualbell t_vb=
But again, I am pretty sure that IdeaVim doesn't parse my .vimrc
Why do you think so? Try setting hlsearch or ignorecase in .vimrc, for example. You should see them in the output of ":set".
Also note that IdeaVim is able to process only the top-level 'set' declarations in .vimrc.
I tried to add `set visualbell t_vb=` to the vimrc (in addition to the autocmd) but that didn't do the trick..
Also non of the stuff that I have in my vimrc is picked up by IdeaVim.
PS: I use janus
Actually you should put exactly this text on a single line:
because many syntax constructs are not supported.
(If you are interested in the .vimrc parsing details, here is the source code).
That didn't work either
As of IdeaVIM 0.35, the rc file is now ~/.ideavimrc.
Put
in ~/.ideavimrc
Brandos Solution Works, Thanks your a life Saver
Yes, editing ~/.ideavimrc really works. Thanks. But it needs to restart IDE.
