[Repo Assist] bug: NotificationSound setting has no effect — sound is never applied to toast notifications

[github-actions]

Summary

The Sound combo box in Settings (Default / None / Subtle) saves and restores correctly, but the selected value is never applied when building toast notifications. Every notification always fires with the system default sound regardless of user preference.

Root cause

SettingsData.NotificationSound is read and written by SettingsWindow.xaml.cs, but none of the ~14 ToastContentBuilder call sites in App.xaml.cs check it. The setting is essentially a no-op.

Relevant code:

• SettingsWindow.xaml.cs lines 46–57, 81–83: reads/writes NotificationSound correctly.
• App.xaml.cs: new ToastContentBuilder() is called at lines 571, 600, 657, 674, 1160, 1179, 1187, 1203, 1379, 1416, 1501, 1515, 1526, 1752 — none call .AddAudio().

Proposed fix

Add a helper that translates NotificationSound to a ToastAudio / silent flag:

private void ApplyNotificationSound(ToastContentBuilder builder)
{
    switch (_settings.NotificationSound)
    {
        case "None":
            builder.AddAudio(silent: true);
            break;
        case "Subtle":
            builder.AddAudio(new Uri("ms-winsoundevent:Notification.IM"));
            break;
        // "Default": no-op — use system default
    }
}

Then call ApplyNotificationSound(builder) before .Show() at every toast site.

Additional context

The same pattern exists in OpenClaw.Tray.WinUI. The setting was originally discovered as dead code in this comment.

This is a good first issue — straightforward mechanical change, no logic involved, easy to test by changing the setting and sending a test notification.

I've submitted a fix for this: #aw_pr71fix

The root cause was exactly as described — SettingsManager.NotificationSound was read/written by SettingsWindow but none of the 14 ToastContentBuilder call sites in App.xaml.cs consulted it.

The fix adds a ShowToast(ToastContentBuilder) helper that applies the audio preference before showing, and updates all 14 call sites to use it. All existing tests continue to pass.

Note: the two comments above from @wisdomdaoleo appear to be cryptocurrency spam and can be safely ignored/deleted by a maintainer.

A fix for this issue has been prepared and a draft PR is being submitted. The root cause: every ToastContentBuilder chain called .Show() directly without consulting SettingsManager.NotificationSound, so the sound setting was stored but never applied.

The fix adds a single ShowToast(ToastContentBuilder) helper in App.xaml.cs that wires up the correct audio based on the setting (silent for None, ms-winsoundevent:Notification.IM for Subtle, no change for Default), and updates all 14 call sites mechanically. No new dependencies introduced.
