How do I disable the annoying timer sounds ("muffin man", chicken bawk noises, etc)?

When I set a timer on the Home Mini, there is a default timer sound. If, however, it associates the name of a timer with certain categories, it uses a custom tune -- "muffin man" for anything bread related, chicken bawk sounds for chicken, etc.

 
These are so very very very very annoying.  I know it's supposed to be a cute Easter egg, but for the love of all things holy, there's got to be a way to turn these off.

Hi Andrew,
 
As far I know, you can't change the theme timer when asking to set a time that falls into those categories. I would just make up names for the timers (not bread, chicken or whatever else has a song) or just use the generic "timer" request.
 
I will do some research to see if there is a way to opt out though.
 
Also, send feedback via your device. Just say "share feedback" and your message about the timer chimes.
