Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**

I always change those options everytime I install Flow Launcher. I'm pretty sure most people do the same because it gets annoying after a while and the default behavior in Powertoys Run, Wox, and Spotlight Search in macOS don't have sounds or animations.

**Describe the solution you'd like**

I'd like the default settings to at least mute sound and follow the system theme. Disable animation would also be a plus. Changing these default settings will prevent distractions whenever typing a program name or query.

**Describe alternatives you've considered**

N/A Flow Launcher is still my go-to since it's considerably faster than Powertoys Run

Research direction

Start by locating the default settings for sound, animation, and system theme in the Flow Launcher codebase. Check how those values are initialized for a fresh installation, then verify that a new installation starts muted, without animation, and using the system theme.
