Description

Continuing the discussion from https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/issues/2105, Element has an interface to set a custom sound per room, but not yet one per room. Global custom sounds already work, but are just not exposed.

For users looking to change this and are happy to fiddle around in devtools, [these instructions](https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/issues/2105#issuecomment-998217391) will work.

#### What would you like to do?

The ability to set a custom notification sound globally across the client from the settings menu.

#### Why would you like to do it?

We already have the functionality, it's just not exposed.

#### How would you like to achieve it?

Well, a settings menu..
