Hmmm, how about "Music/Sound Playing" trigger?
If the output stream for alarm or siren is set as Sound, then it can trigger with the Trigger, right?

Did you set the output stream?
You should select "music" in the
Setting - Play sound stream ?
The trigger "sound play" in my macro worked.
Or am I misunderstanding anything about what you like to do?

When your alart rings, the output stream should be "music sound stream".
Can't you set it so?

the OP (original poster) wants a trigger for sound outside the device, for example a siren, a baby screaming
such a trigger does not exist
but perhaps if there is an app that always listens from the microphone and outputs at the same time at the music/media channel
then using the trigger "Music/Sound Playing" as proposed by @JA-Translator
would do the job !!
it's s tricky way and needs a dedicated device for this monitoring (or never ever listen to normal music
)

Thank you, @dsnz
Ah-ha
Now I understand.Monitoring sound.
How about this?
If you have a Google Nest device,
it may be possible to monitor the sound outside. Then it may be able to trigger something.

I think a pure Android/ Macrodroid solution is much better

Aha! On my device "Samsung Galaxy",
I found a Sound Detector ability.
It can catch a sound of Baby crying or Alarm siren etc.
I didn't know that until now.
Don't you have the similar one on your device?

I know this app, and I have it everywhere but for transcribing only.
It didn't come to my mind to use as sound trigger because it processes the sound and notifies only for those sounds it assumes to be: siren, baby cry, and many others (really many indeed) so it's not a general trigger above a sound level (eg. any sound above 80 db)
but I must say for practical purposes it should be ok though it must be tested and that's what I'm going to do sometime soon

Oh you know well.
That's very interesting and I'm curious.
When you test it, let me know how well it works.
