Windows server randomly plays windows notification sound - deadtried - 2024-06-11
Updated to Windows Server 10.9.x and now just after startup and every 1 to 2 hours a conhost.exe under jellyfin.exe plays Windows Foreground.wav.
I can see this using process monitor to find the source of the sound and process explorer to find the process,
I have killed it in process explorer multiple times at no determent to the jellyfin server function.
I use the computer it is hosted on for other things and don't want this nothing sound to play and its annoying to have to go into process monitor and kill it after every restart and to restart to unload it so roblox and other crap anti cheat games can be played on it.
How can i stop this from running

Strictly speaking, you can stop conhost.exe being started for jellyfin.exe by using something like CFF Explorer to modify jellyfin.exe and changing its subsystem from Windows Console to Windows GUI. But that's masking the real problem, and doing that will break the ability to run that exe in a Command Prompt and seeing its output. That said, I have no idea what your actual underlying issue is; my absolute guess would be the Console Host interpreting a message outputted by Jellyfin as containing a bell character or something. If you open your Jellyfin log files and look around the time you heard the notification sound happened, you could see if there are any "odd" characters in a text editor.
