Watch chimes randomly with no notification when when sleep focus is active

Title says it all. The chime occurs at random times throughout the day. There is no notification explaining what happened or why it chimed. It just makes a noise and pretends nothing happened. It even happens randomly at night while sleep focus is active to my wife’s extreme displeasure. The only way to stop it is to silence the watch but that silences the alarm too so that isn’t an option. Is there any way to find out why it is pinging me?

I'm still having this issue across multiple software updates, factory resets, multiple iPhones. You're right, it's not even on any focus. I can happen with no active focus at all. I kept a log of time and date and found no pattern. I've given up trying to figure this out.
