Yep. The only puzzle piece left for this is making it so the sound will play through the ‘Mute game while minimized’ option. Then it will be caaaaaaaaaake.

Could there be another option that allows you to check a box that says “Play notification sounds even while minimized”? I’m not sure the difficulties around such a change, but then such a thing could be added to all queues (overflow/wvw/spvp/etc) and still leave growth for whatever else comes up during the games growth that could be classified as a notification.
Yes, you are describing the functionality that we need

Evan, I think if possible you should also make the Guild Wars 2 icon on the start menu flash when the tournament queue pops and we get the sound notification. That would be clutch.
We do have this functionality, but its currently hacked in as a windows-only feature. I’d like it to be cross-platform if possible before I add it.

So we won’t geting because 8% of mac and linux users cant get it? Great…..
It’s my duty as a programmer to be respectful of these things. Does it mean it will never happen? No. It does mean that someone else will have to approve not having a cross platform feature. I’ve already started the ball rolling to get this cross-platform functionality done correctly, but I have no timeline on that.
