Sonos One...stop alexa wake sound?

Still no answer on this... Sonos still not replied to my email, tweet or Facebook message.

Agreed, the "Start of Request" sound should be off by default. I find it quite annoying.

+1 a toggle for the wake sound would be appreciated

We don't have any specific plans announced on this one, but I'll make sure to pass your request on to the team. Since there isn't an obvious light change, the chirp is to let you know the Sonos One heard "Alexa".

If you are listening to music when you say Alexa the lowered volume of the sound is enough for me as an indication that the wake word has been heard. Wake sound really not required

This is one of the 2 annoyances I have with the Sonos One right now. There needs to be an option to remove the wake sound!

You mean like the bright white light in the middle of the top of the thing lighting up when I say "Alexa"? Even if I've got the status light switched on it glows much brighter when you're talking to the thing.

Give us the ability to shut this silly sound off!

Yes the wake sound is really annoying. There needs to be a setting to turn it off.

Whew! Glad I didn't have to create this topic. Just got the ONE and feel slightly bummed that I was told ONLY 2 features of Echo were not available with ONE. I took that to mean skills. Big mistake. Anyway the wake sound is driving me nuts. I have to keep stopping and waiting for it to finish and spent way too much time trying to figure out how to kill it. Hurry please.

Yeah, between this and the fact that it's so sensitive to background conversations (it activates constantly when nobody is saying "Alexa"), I couldn't take it any more. I called up Sonos today and started my RMA.

To be brutally honest, Sonos released an unfinished product in the Sonos One. How this thing made it out of their QA process without blocker PR's being raised over stuff like the overly-sensitive nature of its listening and the "bonk" every time you start talking to Alexa speaks to the (poor) quality of the resources they put on the job.

Their support even suggested I do the Alexa voice training procedure like you can do with an Echo. Oops, that's yet another unimplemented feature in the Sonos One.
