Nextcloud talk: What should I do to get notification sounds for incoming calls?

I have the NC client running in a browser window under windows. I tried with FF, Edge, and Chrome. If there is an incoming call or chat message, I want to get a sound notification. But don’t get any.

I went through all the browser settings and entered notification exceptions for the Nextcloud site - with no success. A Talk application is unusable if there are no notifications, so there must be a solution. I don’t care which browser the solution works for, as long as there is a solution.

Does anybody have some hints for me, what I can do to get sounds for incoming calls and messages?

The last time I used Nextcloud Talk, I was notified by a ringtone from the standard Nextcloud desktop client.

standard Nextcloud desktop client.

I wasn’t aware, that such a thing exists… As far as I know, there is only a desktop client for file sharing. Hmmm…

This stopped me from installing the desktop app. But anyway: The talk app is as silent as the browser. The audio settings are correct because I can have a conversation. I just don’t hear the ringing.

If somebody else has the same problem: Install the app. Don’t be confused by the fact that the app seems to be only for file sharing. And there is a Mac OS version, too. Communication between Window and Mac OS works very well. And change the conversation settings:
