Yes you will.

You'll also receive a warning if you forget to switch off the ADIRS and emergency lights.

Didn't know about the horn for the batteries .. got a FCOM ref?
The batteries will auto cut-off if you forget to switch them off, to preserve some charge. 1.24.20 p2

Nice to know but I'll tell you. On our 319s with integrated ELT the external horn will sound if ELT is transmitting ( either in Test/Reset position or in the On position ). We checked thru the AMM ( Airplane Maintenance Manual ) and we discovered such connection.

The answer would be no.

1. IRU on bat.
2. APU fire.
3. Avionics bay blower fault.
4. Avionics bay duct overheat.
5. ELT transmit?
