"Since Teams was introduced to us for use, the notification sound, that continuous "ding," can be changed to something more delicate or something that sounds a bit more pleasant? I have to live with the only sound notification Teams has, because Microsoft lacks imagination and forgot that not everyone who uses Teams may like the same sound, that annoying "ding" which after a few hours becomes like a hammer hitting your head."

The latest version of NEW TEAMS, lets you change the notification sound. There's not a lot to choose from, but at least we're not stuck with the default now.
You can actually disable/Turn off the sound for Chats/Messages etc. and leave it on just for Phone Calls.
Under the Teams >Settings >Notifications, you can Edit the settings for Chat, Meetings and Calls, People and Other. You can turn each or some off.
why don't you disable the sound?
On mac, you can change the "Notification Style" from Teams-default to "Mac". That switches the design of the notification to macOS and also the sound to the familiar mac-notification-sound. Which, can be changed in your mac's System settings.
Hope this makes everyones day a little better :)
I hope we can work together to build a future where the goal isn't to profit, but to create, learn, build, and thrive! I love efficiency and would happily design systems that put me out of a job =)
