I'm using Rainmeter for a Hardware Monitor and the result looks great!
But after many installed skins, there's one of them which plays a sound every hour, where a voice tells what time it is.
Unfortunately I can't figure out where it comes from and how to turn it off.
I searched the whole Skins folder for soundfiles, but couldn't find them.
Also in the Windows Sound Mixer there's no pitch for Rainmeter, so I can't mute it.
I can't find any hints to mute Rainmeter in it's options.
How can I turn off all sounds coming from Rainmeter?

Search all the skins on your machine for the text "Plugin=Speech". When you find it, that's the skin that is speaking the time. Unload it and you are good to go (or comment out the measure to stop the speaking).

Or.. delete the speech plugin from the Vault folder.

The @Vault folder has nothing to do with it. And if you delete a plugin that a skin is trying to use, you will just get boatloads of errors in the log
Yep. Sorry about the messy fix. However, then the log will tell which skin, and the actual measure or meter that is throwing the error. Instead of searching every skin for the needle in the haystack.

Even if for now the skin probably has been removed, I have to say that it probably has been jsmorley's PowerShellTime. This is my supposition, at least based on the above description. Am I right?
