HELLO EVERYONE! My email notification sound is BACK. I did not do anything. It just happened today when I logged in. I am using web outlook and chrome browser. I honestly did not make any changes with my settings. So, I guess, Microsoft has already fixed this. Please check yours
Hello!
I started experiencing this just today. I have been using outlook web for almost two years now and it just happened today. I have turned on all notif as well as in my Google chrome browser, and my pc. All notif has been turned on.
I have also refreshed the settings by turning it off and on, restarted my pc twice today, nothing works.
I have signed in to another outlook account which I also owned for work, and it is doing just fine. Notif sound is working. But in my main email, the email I am using in posting this, is not working at all. Please help. I need the notif sound so I could action all email requests at work on time.

2024-08-19T20:33:31+00:00 Adding onto the pile here...been having this same issue since last week. I'm on Firefox (latest version) on MacOS 13.6.7.
In my case, I am getting sound notifications when people react to an email (thumbs up, etc). But, I get no sound notification on receipt of New E-mail...and that is really cramping my work style.
And, @Carmid.L - MSFT, your solution does absolutely nothing to fix the issue. Sound is enabled all over the place. I haven't even LOOKED at those settings in years. The issue has to be on Microsoft's end.
