Hello sudharson_aswin,


We'd love to assist you with your startup chime. Let's try resetting the Mac using the steps here: Reset NVRAM or PRAM on your Mac. Although this reset does not erase anything from the Mac, we always recommend backing up the Mac first using the steps here: Back up your Mac


Take care!

Hi sudharson_aswin,


We're glad to hear the NVRAM reset resolved the issue. Since doing the reset, have you been able to test the issue again to see if it still occurs?


Also, does the issue occur in a different user account? If you have another user account already set up, then you can use that one. If not, please follow the steps here: Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac to set up and test in a different user account. 


Best Regards
