Turn off the sound informing that someone sharing screen, joining the meeting

Hi, how can I turn off the sound of the assistant who speaks out loud every time I or someone else "turns on/off the recording", "starts sharing the screen", or "joins the meeting"? Even when I turned off Zoom from my laptop and logged in again, the "assistant" announced aloud that "the latest updates have been deployed to the client."
I couldn't find any options to turn it off in the settings, only: "Sound notification when someone joins or leaves", which is turned off.
I would appreciate any help.

It sounds as though you have Screen Reader enabled and you'd like to disable it.
