I'm betting you've got a third party program that's augmenting your sound options, in which case there would settings in it that allow you to tailor sounds with particular programs.

In the stock WM2k3, when you go into Sounds & Notifications you should see the following options:

SYSTEM VOLUME followed by a slider going from Silent to Loud

ENABLE SOUNDS FOR
__ Events (warnings, system events)

__ Programs [I'm betting this is checked on your machine]

__ Notifications (alarms, reminders)

__ Screen taps

O Soft O Loud

__ Hardware buttons

O Soft O Loud

So, by UNchecking Programs you shouldn't hear any sounds associated with applications running, but leaving Notifications checked will allow alarms to work.
