Set default Sound scheme to "No Sounds"

Hello, is there a way in NTLite to configure the Windows 11 iso to apply the "No Sounds" Sound Scheme after installation?
I prefer the Windows 11 system sounds to be muted and thought this could be a great way to save some time after installation.
I'm aware people have been removing the sound files from the ISO, but I want to keep the option of enabling the system sounds intact.
I know there should be ways to set the scheme in the windows registry but it seems to be necessary to set every individual sound to mute one by one, and I haven't found a .reg file that would set all of them.
So if someone has a .reg file that will set the system files to muted, that would obviously be a welcome solution.
In my opinion this is a pretty obvious thing to want from a personalized Windows ISO, so I suggest adding the option to NTLite, unless I have overlooked it.
Looking forward to answers, greetings.
 
I found this PS script for updating the reg values, but it's probably overkill. But it explains what goes on behind the scenes.

Because it's a new Windows install, we can simply use a registry changes tool to capture what happens with Sound settings.
Add this reg file to Post-Setup (User). For testing, run "reg import NoSounds_Theme.reg" on a live system.

I doubt NTLite will add this as a supported option, since it would have to keep track of 98 reg key pairs.

Thank you very much, I'm adding this to my ISO and will definitely try it on my next install!
I think it would be fair enough of an effort for the paid versions of NTLite, I don't think the schemes actually change a whole lot.
Just tested the .reg file and it did perfectly change up the Scheme to no sound, so this should work on an ISO.
I forgot to mention, I'm really thrilled with NTLite, it's an essential for tech enthusiasts.

It's really about basic math. With only one developer, NTLite can either focus on adding special features normal users can't do vs. supporting every desired user tweak. The community is better at filling in those gaps IMO.
