I haven't really seen that. Oh, some useless 'chatter' now goes to the shoutbox, but if people want to discuss an issue they still use the forums.
Of course, one big difference perhaps is that I have mine set up as a shoutbox, not a chatbox. It idles them out after 5 minutes. And I would never consider adding any sort of chime or notice that a post has been made - those are for chatboxes, and not for shared servers.
