How to mute chat notification sound by default in Zoho SalesIQ?

How to mute chat notification sound by default in Zoho SalesIQ?

We’ve recently embedded the Zoho SalesIQ chatbot on our website, and we’ve noticed that notification sounds sometimes play even when the visitor hasn’t interacted with the chat widget yet.

We’re trying to understand two things:

  1. Why do these sounds occur automatically, even when the chat hasn’t been opened or used by the visitor?

  2. Is there any way to set the chat notification sound to be muted (OFF) by default when the page loads?

I’ve checked the admin and brand settings, but I couldn’t find an option to make sounds muted by default — only the ability for users to manually mute them.

If there’s any configuration, script hook, or recommended workaround to achieve this, I’d appreciate your advice.
