Yup! Very true: Visual glare is about the only real reason why you might want to angle your glass, but not for acoustics. As Rod adds, two posts down from that one:

There is NO truth to the claim that you increase isolation between glazing leafs by splaying the windows.

The fact is just the opposite - you loose some isolation because of the loss in the spring system that is created within the free air space.......
