I think you've pointed out that artificial noisemakers are prohibited in championship play, based on RS 49 (and I don't have an ASA rule book handy to check). The same prohibition is listed in the ASA Code.
So if you were to not ignore it and put a stop to it, I suppose you would be doing something in line with what is written. But it sounds to me--and as others have alluded--that you would be in the minority here.
