With a recent beta update, there has been a fix for this. Read further to learn how to turn off the beep sound for the PS5.

Feel free to check your email associated with your PlayStation account, as it is possible that you have been invited and must accept the invitation in an email by PlayStation. Once you have accepted the invitation, the feature to turn off your PS5 beep sound should become available.
The beta for the update includes other new features outside of the option to turn the beep off. The new features include the ability to control two controllers and System UI Haptic Feedback, where the former could be great for helping someone get through a challenging level in a game, and the latter will make navigating the home page of your PS5 feel more authentic.
