To answer all the above questions yes my outlook and everything is setup correctly.

It turns out that if I disable the voice command option for calendar then the notification sound starts to work.

So, what I did was disable the voice annoucements of the appointments/calendar and now the "notify" tone plays just fine and repeats every minute too.

So I guess no voice or anything announcing the appoitnment for me. oh well at least something works.

Hope that works out for everyone else too!
