Poke-Sound missing when muted in TS5

Hello,
in TS3, when somebody poked you and you had muted your sound, it still said it to you.
I have found the options menu that lists various sounds like “channel join” etc. but getting poked is not there and you can not set if you want to hear the message while muted.

I hope this will get added in a future release as my friends have stated this a big issue for them and a step down from TS3.

Oh wow, I had no idea you could do that.
Still, I think it should be the default as most people expect TS3 behaviour.
Thank you for pointing this out.

Hi,

i realised when I have microphone and sound muted in the TS5 client, I also do not hear poke-sounds. In TS3 the poke sound still was hearable.
Someone knows how to fix that?

There is no Poke Sound in the TeamSpeak 5 Client.
But yeah, i miss the Poke Sound too. :frowning:

There is. Just like TS3 Hey wake up!
But I guess it is part of messaging. So you can currently not control poke massages independently. So I think you need to set this to always.

For some reason when you poke somebody on ts5 they can’t hear the poke while they have sound muted, back in ts3 we used to be able to hear the poke sound when we had sound muted, would be nice to have it back.

This is possible.

Open Settings → Notifications
Under Messaging this can be enabled.

In case you can’t see this section do a right click and enable the advanced menu for that section

nice

I cannot hear when i am being poked when i am muted. Before some updates there were an option to enable that when you are being poked, the sound should play when the Speaker is muted. I find that option for many sound but not when you are being poked. Is there still a way to play the sound when muted or are you planning to bring the feature back in future updates

This setting is still available.

SettingNotificationsMessaging → Right click You received a message and then enable You were poked to always play a sound.

thank you, haven’t had advanced settings on

Hey there,
while being sound muted, there seems to be no notification sound (“Hey, wake up”) when receiving a poke.

I’ve navigated to the notification settings to enable it (although it should be enabled by default), but there seems to be no option to set the poke notification behaviour, which seems like an obvious bug.

You have to enable the advanced tab at messaging and set “you were poked” to the last option.

6.0.0-beta3.1 on Linux, there are only two options.

I’ve asked a friend on Windows, he also sees only two options, there is no way to show advanced options on default theme, so this seems like a bug.

Regardless, I feel like poke notifications while being sound muted should also be enabled by default, as “wake up” indicates.

Simply right click on either of the two and then press “Show Advanced”, to view all options.

Yeah that works, thank you very much!
It’s not very accessible, so I’d keep the suggestion open to enable the poke notification sound per default and make the “advanced options” a bit more accessible :sweat_smile:
