Audible alarm when off track when navigating?

Hi,

Is it possible to get an audible alarm during a hike when I'm off track when I'm navigating with my 735XT?
On my Garmin Edge 800 I can get a nice alarm that I can hear pretty well. But on the 735XT I can only
get this very weak vibration so I don't notice when I'm off the track.
There is a nice alert sound that you can use to locate your 735XT. Would be nice if I could hear this sound when I'm off track.
I looked in all settings pages and I couldn't find such an option but I may have overlooked this.

Thanks,

Michel

Do you have alert tones set to on in the system settings? I think it might be a global only setting. For me the vibration is good enough, especially as there is a visual notification as well and I am usually looking at the watch near every turn of I don't know where I am going

Yes my alert sounds are on but my key sounds are off. Too bad this doesn't seem to be possible. I've always used a 305 where this was also possible. Too bad though.
