What happened to the Google Now Jingle?? - Google

I did a bit more digging into this and found a post at the Google Search Help Forum which shines some light on the strange new behavior:

Hi there,


Thanks all for reporting this into the community forum! The changes are an intended experimental feature that we are testing to improve the user experience and latency on voice search. That being said, we do welcome your feedback and appreciate your thoughts to help make our product better!


To submit your feedback to the product team directly, please submit in product feedback at Menu > Send feedback. Thanks!


Cheers,

AJ, Google Search Community Manager

So it's not a fix, but I'd recommend following AJ's suggestion to submit feedback directly within the Google app to let Google know how you feel about this change.
