Make sure you are updated to the most recent version of macOS. The current version is 11.5.2.


A couple of earlier versions of macOS had an issue where the Startup Sound setting did not retain the what it was changed to.


For example: if the setting was unchecked, checking it would simply revert to unchecked...as well as if the setting was checked, unchecking it would revert to it being checked.


I had this issue as well and updating to the newest version (at that time) corrected it.
