I have a dumb work related chrome thing, i’d like to make it so that when a certain notification sound plays in chromium, my computer does a few things automatically for me

Does anyone know a good way to make this happen?

I imagine it’d have to be setup like:

when chrome starts playing audio && check if that audio matches soundfile.ogg && myscript.sh, but I don’t know any good cli utilities that could get something like that done, and if there are any better ideas!

    This is absolutely an xy problem. Your problem is that you need to programmatically respond to notifications across multiple applications

    You are asking for help with a solution based on notification sounds which is one possible solution but a bit of a weird one
