How do I disable the ringtone in the Windows desktop Jabber client. I have version 10.5.2 Build 45439. In File > Options > Sounds and Alerts I have checkboxes to disable sounds for Chat messages, but no way to disable the ringtone.

I don't believe we have a way to do that other than the DND feature.

My internal IT support team suggested I just mute the app via the mixer controls in Windows, which I've done.
Consider this a feature request :) It's annoying to have the Jabber app blast a ring tone on my PC when my desk phone is right beside me also ringing.

You need to submit a formal PER via your AM so it's actually taken into consideration for future releases.

I'd be happy to, but I have no idea what PER or AM mean :)

PER = Product Enhancement Request
AM = Account Manager

Jabber for Window 10.6 which is currently in our Early Adopter Program trial and targeted to release on January 22nd, 2015, intends to add the following functionality, perhaps 10.6 will meet your needs?
Do Not Disturb
Call alerts and ringers are suppressed when your presence is Do Not Disturb, or in any red presence
state. If you receive a call while in Do Not Disturb, you still see a missed call notification on your client.
Call Notifications on Other Device
For users who do not want to interrupt their work to answer the phone, you can now disable incoming
call alerts, which requires the call to be answered on a desk phone or a headset.
Mute Before Answer
When you are joining a call, you can now mute your phone before you connect to the call.
Audio Device Selection
You can select your preferred headset or other audio device directly from chat windows. A new option
allows you to open audio options in the Jabber client, and select your microphone, headset, and ringer
preferences.
Ring on All Devices
You can hear incoming Jabber calls and alerts on your computer speakers and all connected devices.
Even if your headphones are plugged in, when you receive a Jabber phone call or IM alert, the sound
is played in both your headset and through your computer speakers. This feature is enabled by default,
but users can change their ringer and alert preferences in the Audio tab of the Options menu.

Those are all cool, but not quite what I want. Call Notifications on Other Device is close, except I don't want to disable the popup on my desktop. I just don't want the audio ring sound to play when a call comes in.

Neil,
I want exactly what you want... the pop-up call notifications, without the actual ringing. I'm using client v11.1 and this still doesn't seem to be an option.
Did you submit a Product Enhancement Request? If so, is there a number or anything that I can reference or vote up?
Thanks!

No, I never did. Feel free and let me know so I can upvote :)

Hi,
we have the following issue: after the upgrade from CUCM 9.1 to 10.5(2), when a user set the presence state to red, the ringtone of the IP-phone will not be supressed.
Jabber version is still 11.5.1.
Should I set something else on CUCM to have the same behaviour?
Thanks,
Mirko

Review the DND behavior in both, CUCM and the client side.

Hi Jaime,
Thanks for your answer.
DND is generally working!
If I press the DND key on the IP-phone and also with Jabber as softphone, if the presence state is set to DND (red) and I receive a call the device (IP-phone or client) doesn't ring.
But with Jabber set as CTI client, if I set the Presence state to DND (red) the IP-Phone rings as DND would not be enable.

After a restart of all the server in the cluster included IMP DND works again also from Jabber.
