Maybe it’s a default setting now, but it wasn’t in my case, and I was getting super bugged by Edge sound notifications. I don’t actually use Edge much (Firefox being my preferred browser) but I have it open for some work stuff and any time some raises a ticket or replies to a ticket and if I have our ticketing system open it makes a ding<\/em> sound. Of course I can mute the tab via Ctrl+M<\/code> but sometimes I forget to and when I logout for the day I can still hear the browser making these ding<\/em> sounds. Aargh.<\/p>\n

Turns out there’s a hidden way of muting by default. Pop in this URL in Edge: edge:\/\/flags\/#edge-sound-content-setting<\/code><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Flip it from “Default” to “Enabled”, as in the screenshot. And then in Settings > Cookies and Site Permissions > you will now see a “Sound” section.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

You can set it to be blocked by default and make exceptions, or enabled by default and block specific sites.<\/p>\n
