      This is very annoying. Can someone please add the option to stop this stupid sound

    • Reason #5,328 I don't use Miscrosoft Trash commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

      How typical "Microsoft" to force a ******** sound on a MAC. This is why everyone laughs at Microsoft. I wouldn't have it unless my business associates didn't only want to use SKYPE. ******* embarrassing sound that I cant turn off. Wakes up the wife, and annoys coworkers in meetings. Typical Microsoft trash.

      Please ditch the login / startup sound completely. No other application I use has this and it causes me no issues whatsoever.

      Agreed. The ability to turn off the start-up sound in a business application is expected behavior.

      The login sound for Skype for Business on Mac, is irritating, embarrassing, and distracting to those around me. Just give us the ability to disable it from the user interface. Until then, I will have to reapply a hack to disable it, every time there is an update, which is annoying.

      Please add the option to turn off the login sound! It's very silly.

      Is this annoying startup sound punishment for being a Mac user? Please give the ability to turn it off!

      RE: Disable Sign in sound on Skype for Business on Mac
      This start up sound is very annoying and very frustrating that I can't seem to turn it off.
      Hey Microsoft … please allow us to turn the sound on or off.

      It is really unprofessional to start up your PC in a lecture and make this wild whooping sound. Everyone around you sniggers. Remove the sound!

      Are you serious that this sound can't be turned off! Give me the abilty to silence it.

      I will be uninstalling until this is resolved. I can't believe the opening sound can not be disabled. for ***** sake why don't you just not have an opening sound and if you want to eventually get around to making an option, you can option to turn a sound on for those that want it.

      Please implement the option to disable this annoying and pointless sound! Why was it added in the first place?

    • David Q commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

      Thanks Robin R. I have silenced the phone ringing sound, the end call sound and the login sound. I found this github repo: github.com:anars/blank-audio.git to find a 1 second of silence mp3.

      I copied the 1-second-of-silence.mp3 to the Skype App Contents/Resources/sounds/ directory as silence.m4a. Then symlinked the most annoying sounds to that file.

      Boom!

      And I will write a script to redo this after an update.

      Amazed that this is still an issue - is it part of MS plan to force people away from SfB to Teams??
      The work-around of providing an alternative sound file to 'SFB_Login_01.m4a' does do the trick but not everyone will wish to do that.
      How this 'feature' ever got through UAT is a mystery - as is the fact it's taking so long to fix.
