Not guaranteed, but try moving the trigger (if you use trigger sound) far, far, far away.

You can use the deletevehicle command on triggers as well (if it's a trigger sound)

So, if you want to permanently get rid of it, you can set up some other condition and use deletevehicle trigger1.

If you wanted to simulate it turning off and turning on again, use Armstrong's method.  (ie have it play for a set length of time, move it.  Trigger fires again--->move it back)

Actually I spoke hastily....this would work only if you had the trigger and the sound as seperate objects.

Make the trigger that sounds the alarm trigger from aonother trigger via a boolean.  Then when you want the alarm to stop make that boolean value false.  Make sure the trigger with the alarm is set to repetitive so it will continue to monitor the boolean varibale.

Eg.:

Trigger one:  ACtivation - west ,or east or whatever
Condition: true
On activation:  ringalarm = true

Trigger two: activation - none
condition: ringalarm
(make this trigger repteated so it keeps checking if ringalarm is true or false)
