Try changing the notification sounds and see if the sound that plays changes.

And after doing this I've figured out that it's classified under the "Exclamation" in the sounds menu. Which doesn't terribly narrow it down very much, tbh, as it doesn't tell you what actually falls under the Exclamation category in terms of alerts. :-/

Not what I meant. There are certain events that use the "Exclamation" sound. Try changing the sound those events make until the sound that keep playing changes. Make sure to keep track of which sounds you're changing, of course.

Then I'm not sure how to change the sound for individual events under the Exclamation category. Unless I didn't word it properly and there's confusion. If I right-click on the volume icon in the tray, and then click on "Sounds" it brings up the Sound window. In there, I have the Sound Scheme set to Windows Default. In the Program Events dialog box, it lists 3 major categories (Windows, File Explorer, and Windows Speech Recognition). Under the Windows category is listed the sub-category called "Exclamation", and when I click on Exclamation it says that the sound itself that's assigned to it is named "Windows Background". This same "Windows Background" sound file is also assigned to several other sub-categories.

So are you saying that there is a way to assign each individual event that falls under the "Exclamation" sub-category a unique sound that is not Windows Background? So that one individual event will play a different sound than the rest of the events that would normally call up whatever is assigned to Exclamation? Because if so, I'd love to know how to do that. I'd be able to find the culprit very easily (if a bit tedious) if that were the case.
