Description
### Steps to reproduce
1. Start with the default push rules that give you silent notifications for group chats:

2. In the app go to Settings | Default Notifications and uncheck all of these, and then recheck them (forcing all to now be noisy notifications).
3. Receive a notification from a group chat.
### Outcome
#### What did you expect?
The incoming notification to now play a sound
#### What happened instead?
The notification is still silent.
A quick investigation into this and the push rules are updated in `MXNotificationCenter`, however the NSE uses `MXBackgroundPushRulesManager` and is running in a separate process.
The new rules do eventually take effect, for example if the NSE crashes or if you restart your phone.
Marked as S-Major as toggling notification sounds seems like a pretty core feature of the app to me.
