The setting, accessibility.signals.progress, enables screen reader users to hear progress anywhere a progress bar is presented in the user interface. The signal plays after three seconds have elapsed, and then loops every five seconds until completion of the progress bar.

There are now separate accessibility signals for when a line has an error or warning, or when the cursor is on an error or warning.
