Your in beta for message app?
 
This is what mine looks like when I tap that

I have the beta as well, but I can still see the option to change the default notification sound. I only see the Conversations section of the notification settings in your screenshot -- what if you scroll down further? On mine, under the Conversations section, there should be Default Settings.
 
OK, I scrolled all the way down and finally found "incoming messages" notification.
 
This setting is so convoluted to use. I remember some other issue that Google made much more difficult in Android 12, and B.Diddy encouraged everyone to submit it to Google for a hopeful fix. Let's do it for this issue also. This needs to be back in the general sound and notifications menu.

I think the issue for the OP was that there were so many individual conversation thread notification settings, it made the general default notification setting not as obvious (i.e., had to scroll down to see it). From my experience, those individual conversation thread notification settings only appear if the user goes to that thread in the Messages app, taps Menu, then Notifications (even if the user doesn't change the actual notification tone for that conversation). So if you don't access that menu for most of your conversations, the app's notification settings won't look so cluttered.
 
While my Redmi note 10pro still has all the options for ring tone change when I update to 12 it changed all the tones to a new one. For days I was hearing this strange ping sound about the house especially nd it never dawned on me I just though my volume was still off after work.
