How can I disable the notification "Not hearing anything? Turn up volume"?

Hello,
How can I disable the notification "Not hearing anything? Turn up volume"?
This notification started appearing after I updated Zoom for Windows to version 5.16.10 and appears when the computer's volume is equal to or less than 10%.
I couldn't find the option to disable this alert in the Accessibility menu.

hi @once 
This option can not be disabled at present.
It was added recently because of low volume problems of users.

all the best

It happened again..... I am getting HEARING DAMAGE from this application. I will be contacting the national consumer protection authorities to investigate this as a potential health hazard.

I'm looking for alternatives to Zoom, since the company chooses not to hear their customers.

It's an absurd, having to click that every time.

Bad software engineers.  Just add a disable option.  You fixed problem for a small number of users in exchange for causing a problem for the masses.   Have some situational awareness and open your minds.

It’s very annoying for deaf people, including me, and it makes us click more to close it. It’s audism.
