High pitch beeps caused by saving settings of Physio Metrics -> Auto Detection

It's not the first time... I tweak some random setting in the watch - this time - Auto Detection of Max HR. And behold!! The watch now makes high pitch beeps (into my earbuds) each time it reports something.

Previously I've had switched some unrelated setting and workout suggestions began to show up on my watch, although is never happened before even if I had workout suggestions turned on.

How?? People? How it's even possible to write a software in such way?

The high pitched noise before audio alerts is something I reported in the 15.71beta thread and I also reported to outdoor.beta via e-mail on 2nd March

Considering a high pitch sound injected into your eardrums is actually damaging for your ears, it's disappointing this doesn't appear to be in the pipeline for fixes. There have been a couple of threads here about it, and I also spotted folks talking about it on a Reddit Garmin forum.

I had this same issue several months ago and no response or resolution from Garmin other than I turned off audio alert sounds or something like that on the watch itself. I still get the audio alert in my headphones each time I run 1 km just without the deafening screech beforehand.
