No whoosh sound when sending email

Hi all, I have a 2019 iMac running Ventura 13.3.1, and Mail Version 16.0 (3731.500.231). Since updating to Ventura I do not get any sounds when sending or receiving mail.


I have new mail sound set in Mail settings and "Play sound for other mail actions" is also ticked


I have restarted several times. I have also checked that my speaker is working and I get sounds for other apps but still no sounds for mail.


Can anyone suggest a solution pleas

iMac 21.5″, 13.3

So as to keep people from having to read and search through long answers, first check if when you send your mail you have a Focus on (in Control Center) that turns off sounds. Adjust your Focus states if you always want the swoosh sound no matter the Focus state.
