The cool start up and shut down sounds stopped playing on my truck. I didn’t notice it until 1 day they started playing again randomly. But then stopped again. What’s that all about? Is there a setting?

Though us plebes in the lower trims have a not so cool sound as the Plati's, sometimes ours also goes astray, no idea why but it eventually comes back, likely a boot-up error during start.

I havd noticed that if I have my seatbelt fastened when I hit the Start button, all I get is a single beep instead of the do-do-do sound.

I'm pretty sure they're the same sounds. Sounds like other Ford and Lincoln vehicles I've been in.

Grab your nearest 10 mm wrench and disconnect your 12 v battery for about 10-15 minutes. Let the modules all completely reset.

Have you listened to the startup sound in a non platinum?

The couple times I rode in the platinum , it had a distinctly different tone / melody than my Lariat-ER

I've only test driven a Lariat and I wasn't paying attention to the noises. To my ear my truck sounds like a Ford but I've never paid close attention I suppose.

In my platinum, i get 3 different sounds at varying times when starting. I usually get a startup tone that sounds distinctly different than the high pitched do-da-do, then, sometimes I get a completely different sound like a wha-paaa sound like a wind up and a slap on a snare drum.
After the do-da-do sound, all of my tones in the truck are off, back up sensors do a beep rather than a less harsh tone until I shut it off and hope the next start boots correctly. Very annoying. That coupled with terrible dealer support and lack of any understanding of what software should be running on my truck has me thinking of getting a hideous cyber truck. At least Tesla knows software. My Model Y and Model S have been great vehicles, up to date and really good service experiences here in Cypress, TX.
