I have an Arlo Camera set up looking down a long driveway.  One device that I have constantly been looking for is some kind of chime like feature whenever someone started up the driveway.  With the Arlo Pro 2 camera system, this would work perfectly if the alarm could be set to trigger for something like a half second to act as a chime.  Currently, the minimum interval is a minute which is just too long for this kind of feature.

I don't have an Arlo answer for you but I have some Amazon Echos (dots) that see the Arlo cameras as motion detectors. When a specific Arlo camera (above my front door) detects motion, my Echo Dots announce "There's someone at the front door" but you could equally get it to play a chime or say whatever you want. For $30, an Amazon Echo Dot might fulfill want you want as well as provide you many other options for a smart home
