Despite selecting no audiable notifications, zulip continues to play notification sound. Please fix it.

@pronebird can you edit your report to show the server version involved? https://zulip.com/help/view-zulip-version

Also is this the desktop app, or the web app? And what OS? A possibility is that your OS is making a sound when a "visual desktop notification" is triggered. If you change the sound configured in Zulip's settings, do you hear that sound, or some other sound?

Desktop app on macOS 14.7.4. I don't have visual notifications as I have them disabled on in system settings, Notifications Off. Also I found a setting that says "Mute all sounds from Zulip" under Desktop settings. Maybe this could help remedy this because it clicks the whole day. I have Zulip always open either on my second screen or somewhere on my primary one.

Note that it's impossible to change the sound:

Also after turning on "mute all sounds" under Zulip > Desktop settings, no sound is being played. Yay
