Is the player aware that he is causing a problem?

It seems to be a somewhat antiquated solution, but I find that speaking to 
the player first often works best.  That should be a sufficient wake-up 
call.  If the other players are equally bothered, have them weigh in as 
well.

If that isn't a sufficient wake-up call, it's unlikely that anything you do 
to his character is going to have much impact if you've already spelled it 
out for the player himself.

By the same token, killing off his character if he deliberately ignores what 
you said will probably result in his next character doing the same annoying 
stuff.
