"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."

Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
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.
No - well I can't anyway. I can toggle off "Play sound for incoming calls and notifications" which turns everything on or off, but I can't toggle them separately. Within the 'Chat', 'Meetings and Calls', 'People' and 'Other' editable setting there are only options for the display of the on the screen notification, nothing to do with notification sounds.
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.
you're derailing the conversation.
this thread is about how dumb Microsoft is by removing the option for Mac users to choose a different or custom "ding" tone when receiving messages.
remember, it's us (all of us) against Microsoft's stupid decisions that cause us problem
I found this in another forum about this issue:
"You can't change them because they're embedded into other DLL files. Unlike older Office applications, Microsoft doesn't produce individual sound bite files anymore."
Weeeeeeee!
