Hello!

 

We have an educator that has enabled "Sound notification when someone joins or leaves"; however, when learner join the meetings, the chime is not sounded. 

 

 

Has anyone come across this one before? Here are some details:

  • Just switched to a new computer (had been working before on a different device)
  • Zoom Version: 5.14.8.16213
  • Chrome 113 on Windows 10
  • Uninstalled Zoom and re-installed latest version (5.14.8.16213)

Thanks for any help!

Yes I’m dealing with the same issue. I want to be able to get on my zoom meetings throughout the day without having to manually click on the start of meetings for it to make a noise when someone joins my meeting. I have already applied the settings to give me the sound notification, but it doesn’t work and I still have to manually go in to the start of each meeting to change it under the participant settings for it to send me a sound notification. I would like to see this glitch fixed as it would help me greatly throughout my several meetings each day.

Hello,

In your screenshot the setting is configured for hosts and co-hosts only. Can you state that changing the setting makes no difference?

 

Often your operating system can override notifications.
