In this very screen you described in Control Center, pay attention to
the "Event source" combo box on the top of the screen. When you check
"Apply to all", you're applying to all events in the event source which
is selected here. This breaking-glass sound is in "KDE System
Notifications" event source. Select it before applying changes.
