Waiting Room Tone/Announcement

[kathie.quick]

There are many times where my WebEx room will be open but I am doing other work. When someone is in the waiting room, I don't know it unless I look up every once in a while.  Is there a tone or announcement I can set that will let me know when someone is in the waiting room?

There is a feature request for this that you can "vote" for.  Please click on the link below to add your support for this:

• Webex has a function to notify the host when you visit someone's personal room by clicking a button to send an email to the host.(Your administrator may not have enabled this feature on your site)
• You can also see that there is a meeting at the top of ALL, and you can hover to see who is in your personal meeting room.
• You can also configure Preferences for My Personal Room, Allow cohosts for my personal room meetings.

Our Admins turned on the waiting room feature for all meetings, and now I'm having exactly this same issue. I can't tell you how many times other participants are waiting to join but I don't know it because I am looking at information I'm sharing or writing notes. 

Has anything been done about adding this feature?

I am also having the same issue.

I am having exactly this problem! Ideally a tone would sound if someone entered the waiting room and I was alone in the webex (your guest has arrived)
