Balena Sound Making Weird 'Ding Dong / Doorbell' Noises

Hey guys,

I’m running a Balena Sound server to cast music to my living room speakers via my Rasberry Pi 4. It’s currently operating on balenaOS 2.51.1+rev1

This morning, the casting function didn’t work for the first time, so I reset the Rasberry Pi. Since doing so though, the music I’ve been listening to has been littered with intermittent doorbell noises and sounds. Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi @farquad.495676,
I believe these odd noises are connect/disconnect notification sounds. So there is probably a device that’s intermittently connecting/disconnecting.
You are able to turn the volume of those sounds down to zero though if you want, effectively disabling them: https://sound.balenalabs.io/docs/customizations#set-output-volumes

Hope this helps,
Georgia
