Can I stop my phone from making a sound when I set the ringer volume?

[Android Central Question]

On Pixel 2 XL with Android Pie, I now have to go into ringer settings to set the ringer volume. Every time I do that, it plays an example of the ringer tone. But most of the time I don't want to hear any sound when I set the volume. Can I mute that sound while setting the ringer volume? Thanks!
