Is it possible to make volume at price threshold v2 not alert the last candle of the day? There's always a lot of alerts there and it's kinda pointless but I still want audio alerts for this the rest of the day

There is not a way to do this that we can think of using the built-in Alert functionality. The issue is that for an Alert to go off, it needs to change state from False to True. This will not occur intrabar for any alert setup that we can come up with (basically once the first threshold at price is met, it will always be true and not reset for the following thresholds at price).

The only way to do this would be to modify the code for this study. It would not be hard to do, as you would need to change the section for the alert to add to the if() statement a condition for the time. Refer to the following:
