Wouldn't the screen reader disturb her more than the clanging?

Sorry about entering this thread a bit late.
I am the one who started the thing about the clanger <smile>. And, the
only reason I thought of it that way was due to the disturbance it
causes when it goes off early in the morning before my wife wishes to
rise, and it wakes her up.
Actually, I really don't mind this sound affect all that much myself,
but just wish there was a convenient way to turn it down without
having to prepare for it by fiddling with all of my volume controls in
order to keep from disturbing the spouse. If there were a way to
control the volume through WE, that would help a lot.

I just listened to the file in question and I'm not sure where people
are coming up with this "clanger" thing? It actually reminds me of a
doorbell, at least with Windows 7. I'm not sure if the windows 8.1
sound for the information bar is different for that, but for win 7
I'd actually call that more of a doorbell, ding dong! Either way,
it's good that that particular sound can be turned off easily. I like
it, because it lets me know a download is ready to go, or something
else with the information bar needs my attention.

Hello,
The sound indicates that the notification bar has appeared in
Outlook. To turn it off, open Window-Eyes with Control-Backslash,
navigate to Apps -> Outlook Enhance, and press Enter on "Play sound
when Outlook information bar appears."
Regards,
Steve

Subject: Can I turn off the clanger in Outlook
Can I turn off the clanger in Outlook? I don't mind it in IE, but
it gets pretty tedious while reading email. And wouldn't you think
warning sounds should be restricted to possibly dangerous
situations? Why should it clang when opening .txt messages?
