yes, that is exactly what I am saying.
And I wish to also know where system sound effects volume is managed, as I dare say it differs from say voiceover volume.

Hi,

If your volume is set low, then, yes, the startup chime will normally be set 
low as well.  Are you saying that when you restart, or startup your computer 
from scratch, you do not hear any startup chime?

Later???

Hi Tim,
My understanding is that this is the very last Mac os before big shore, which   
may be why the sound is missing.
As i am profoundly new to all this, I want to insure I have it, was never a 
windows user so all this boot time makes me crazy laughs.
What about turning up the sound if needful?

Hi,

The startup chime was a computer specific item in that model of Mac.  That is, 
the startup chime should still work normally on that device without any 
intervention in System Preferences.  I???m willing to be corrected, but I also 
believe that the checkbox that they???re speaking of was not present in 
Catalina, only Big Sur and newer.

No, it will not make that sound upon opening the lid as it is a chime that is 
sounded as part of the boot process.  In older Macs, before it was removed, it 
doubled as kind of a system check.  If you heard that noise, then the hardware 
was OK, and it should proceed to bring up the MacOS, unless the drive was a 
problem.

HTH.

Later???

hi everyone,
I have a mid 2012 15 inch macbook pro retina now running os 10.15.7 Catalina.
I recall  the discussion about the apple start up sound being removed, was told 
by apple accessibility that this is corrected  by accessing system preferences, 
sound, sound effects, and making sure there is a checkbox beside start up sound.
What I do not recall though is how one insures the start up sound volume is 
turned up,  something I want to know just in case.
Also, if the start up sound is  provided, does it also happen when awakening 
the mac, opening the lid?
Thanks,
Karen
