How to stop S5 from sounding a notification when it connects/disconnects from WiFi

My S5 has begun making an audible sound (sounds like a double cowbell). I have narrowed down the following facts:

It sounds when I get near a wifi and it is connecting/disconnecting

When the above happens it is accompanied by the 'finding location' icon in the notification bar

The sound cannot be heard when I turn the volume all the way down on the MEDIA section of the sound settings

This has only begun to occur in the last week or so

I have tried looking through all my apps and notification settings, but I cannot find what is causing it. The fact that it still sounds when the NOTIFICATION section of the volume setting is off may indicate that it is not a notification.

I installed a notification history app to help isolate the issue and found that it sounds concurrently with "Connected to Wife network" notification.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Ken
