I have a soft beep at 9:55 am every single day in my home. I've spent weeks throwing breaker switches, changing out backup batteries, and still that soft beeping happens. It's not related to smoke alarms (I changed the batteries in Oct. 2018), thermostat backup batteries, appliances (power shut off at breaker), not my printer (turned off all sounds, rings, beeps), powered off at breaker. No alarm clocks or clocks run on house power. Please help me before I demolish my home. I am not having auditory hallucinations. I have other witnesses who have heard the sound.
Thank you.

Do you think the soft beep is from a neighbor's?
A long time ago I heard a faint beep sound in my house and it took me awhile to figure it out and it was an old watch. Any old watches in your home?
Could the sound be coming from your phone or from an old electronic or battery operated item you've stashed in a drawer or box?
It could be a clock or a watch.
I was waking up at 2:30 AM every morning to a beeping sound I did not know where it was coming from. It turns out my stop watch that I used in physical therapy somehow had an alarm set on it.
How long does it last?
Is it possible you have a sound on on your cell or tablet? I had a word game that would ping every morning with word of the day. I had to have my one nephew shut it off.
I think it had something to do with my FIOS TV. I lost the sound on the TV looking to see if there was something that could be making the clanging sound. I have no sound on my TV and the clanging has stopped.
Some things that I hear "beep" around my house (usually once per day):
Somethings (overtime) we had for gotten that we had set when they were in use:
A wall clock that beeped although no one remembers why it was set and then placed in an unused room.
My daughter set an electric timer to beep at 9 o'clock to remind her of something and then placed it in the back of a kitchen drawer not realizing it was still going to beep until batteries run down. This was difficult to find.
If you live in an apartment you may be hearing a neighbor's morning beep.
I am going through something similar right now, only I hear 2 soft beeps every 40 seconds for the last 3 days. It can only be heard in my bedroom, I live totally alone, and even a couple of firemen from the firehouse across the street came over yesterday to check it out. They eliminated everything they could. Thankfully it's so faint that I can fall asleep. Tonight after work I'm going down to my neighbor's condo to see if he has something since the firemen said they can't figure it out and that it must be coming from the unit below or next to me.
Some years ago, for several days I was repeatedly alerted to the sound of an unfamiliar beeper going off somewhere in our house and mysteriously stopping as I tried to find it. Day by day, I was able to narrow down the whereabouts of the device until I discovered that - whatever it was - it was underneath a pile of my husband's sports gear - the watch he only wears on his weekend runs was going off every day (whether he was wearing the watch or not).
Is there an app (for Android) that might help locate the sound?
I installed six smoke detectors originally. The chirping turned out to be the seventh smoke detector...the one that I purchased, but never installed. It was chirping in a box. So, be sure to look for the uninstalled detectors that you may have laying around.
Check the carbon Monoxide alarm. I just had the same problem and it was annoying as hell then I took out the carbon monoxide batteries and it stopped.
Television Remote controller?!
Yesterday my husband & I noticed a soft chirping sound that repeated approximately every 30 seconds.
We isolated the sound as originating from one cabinet in the kitchen.
We tried every suggestion we found online and pulled our hair out for two days...
...in the trash can next to the cabinet was an old smoke detector that my husband had put in the trash two days ago.
