Every time the terminal gets an error code from a command, Cursor plays a sound. How do I disable this?
It’s really quite annoying because I don’t want to mute my entire computer because I care about other sounds such as a notification. Otherwise, I’m loving Cursor!
i think that is a vscode specific feature. you can dissable that in the settings.
Dang, that did it. I’m not sure why my actual VS Code instance has never made sounds, only this Cursor version of VS Code. But in any case, that was the tip I needed and I’ve disabled them.
Can you share what setting you disabled? Searches in VS Code settings in macOS have revealed nothing…
Much appreciated!
Ctrl/Cmd + P → Type “>Sound” → Click on “List Signal Sounds” → Uncheck all → OK
This fixed it! I was using Cursor with no sounds since I installed it, but since the last update the sounds have been activated by default for no reason, you saved me mate! Thanks
Glad I could help!
You can directly disable all of them in your settings JSON with:
"editor.accessibilitySupport": "off"
Thank you all; I tried those options, but the sound is still there.
Is there a more drastic way to deal with it? It’s really unbearable.
Anyone from Cursor who can tell us more?
This is driving me insane. I haven no idea how to turn off the do-ding sound.
Cursor for the love of god turn this off by default
Hopefully this will stick. Trying it out now. I’ve been turning of the accessibility settings, but it keeps getting turned back on some how.
Make me think cursor is doing that for the browser feature or something.
Oh my gosh, you are a lifesaver! The sounds were so annoying, that the sounds continued in my head while going about my daily life away from my computer (lol.)
To turn off the Cursor’s notification sounds.
Use Cmd+Shift+P or Ctrl+Shift+P to open the Command Palette, type “Help: List Signal Sounds”, and then uncheck all the boxes.
There really should be a single toggle (on/off) in the Cursor settings for disabling all of these annoying sounds. We shouldn’t have to go one-by-one and tick them off. Also, the name of the setting is a little misleading - I wouldn’t expect “Help: List Signal Sounds” to be the setting that allows me to disable sounds.
In case it’s helpful to anyone, I encountered this issue when I installed HomeRow, which assigns keyboard shortcuts to every button on your screen. Apparently Cursor thought I needed accessibility support. I turned Accessibility support off and it removed the noises.
Saves my day
