The monitor has to be turned off and back on, and then I can resume play, but then it does it again after another hour or so.  This issue started happening about a year ago, and I have had this monitor for the past 4 years, bought it new from Micro Center in 2016.  The sound is coming from the back of the monitor, presumably from the electronic board. I have a link to a reddit post I made with this noise.  https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/k0jpbu/my_acer_4k_monitor_starts_this_loud_screeching/

    My monitor was bought new in 2015. This horrible "alarm sound" didn't start up until about 6 months ago. So far I've only tried a new DP cable. I'm now awaiting a different monitor, but I wish I knew what could possibly have triggered this sound. Did the engineers program it to go off because _____ is going to happen and you'd better Do Something Right Now or next you'll be calling 911.
