Implement a scanning sound when scanning automated checks/list of instances
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Yes, if I am using a screen reader there are some cases (the internet connection is slow, the page is big, etc) where I don't know what Accessibility insights is doing: is it still scanning?
Describe the desired outcome
apart from the spinning wheel, I would like a scanning sound that notifies me that its still scanning.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Other options could be notifying % of scanning every certain time or using a sound that changes volume/pitch with correlation of the % scanned.
Additional context
Feedback from user. Accessibility Insights for Windows has a scanning sound
Just FYI: we have this feature already in AIWin, and it's configurable by the user (on/off)

This issue has been marked as ready for team triage; we will triage it in our weekly review and update the issue. Thank you for contributing to Accessibility Insights!
Quick Note: using sound only to notify users will not work for braille displays to communicate state of the scanning.
This issue requires additional investigation by the Accessibility Insights team. When the issue is ready to be triaged again, we will update the issue with the investigation result and add "status: ready for triage". Thank you for contributing to Accessibility Insights!
Unfortunately, this is out of scope given our current priorities.
Thanks for using Accessibility Insights!
