Czech King Wenceslaus I (13th century) had problem with bell sounds. It drove him nuts and he got epilepsy type seizures out of it.

So wherever he went, he was preceded by bunch of servants who informed everybody not to run bells when King was present!
Apparently it is some kind of mental condition or disease.
Unfortunately, only Kings can get that kind of treatment!

“Apparently it is some kind of mental condition or disease.”

That is not a mental condition that is neurological.

I’ve heard of epileptic going into seizures after seeing certain colors of lights, mostly red ones or flashing strobe ones. This is the first time I’ve heard a noise doing it but anything is possible when it comes to epilepsy.
