Windows making beeping sound when pressing "-" key

BeeDoo

Whenever I hit the "-" key on my keyboard it makes a sound that almost sounds like a push to talk prompt. I have checked all of the sticky key settings and googled for about 2 hours with no resolution. Any thoughts on how to get this to stop happening? Everything functions properly but as I use that key a lot in Photoshop and Illustrator to zoom out it becomes quite annoying. I have had the keyboard well over a year and this issue just started today so I'm imagining it's a Windows setting but I just can't find it. 

 

Keyboard: Corsair K65 MINI 60% 

 

EDIT***** It seems that somehow Discord decided to set it up as a push to mute randomly and it was activating the sound even without discord being open. Issue has been resolved.

I got it figured out. Somehow a Discord update caused it to set key binds and they activated even when the program isn't open. Thanks for the response!
