    OK, so just to clarify.

    I am soaking the beans overnight tonight.

    Tomorrow, I discard the water and then cook them in fresh water for X number of hours, until cooked.

    Then I discard that water and use as I would canned beans, perhaps adding some of the various herbs etc suggested?

    Thank you!

    I do a lot of bean soups, using dried beans - red beans and rice with sausage, a black bean soup... Something about the soup seems to lessen the problem.

    No, you don't need to discard the cooking water. The indigestible sugars went out with the soaking water. If you're freezing them, they should be covered with the cooking liquid to prevent freezer burn.
