#24 Doesn't play sound by default

[Anonymous]

Hi, the first time I used the timer applet, I didn't know sound notification was turned off by default. I expected it, and was using it to time meditation. I ended up meditating a lot longer than I meant to because I never heard it go off - doh! Does it make sense to have sounds play by default? Or have a checkbox or some note in the 'start timer' dialog so you know if it is or isn't going to make a sound? For many uses (meditation is one, but any usage where you use the computer as a timer and put your attention elsewhere, such as to a book or the TV or your family) I think sound is expected, because the icon is a kitchen timer and kitchen timers work primarily on sound, not visual effects.
