Description

I've no notification sound on incoming chat messages on desktop (Gentoo Linux), while text popup notification works okay.

My friend doesn't have notification sound both on desktop (Ubuntu) and on phone (Android), but do have text notifications on both. (I've notification sound on phone (Android)).

This is very annoying and may become a reason to stop using keybase. :(

Research direction

Start by reviewing the related issues #7740, #10453, and #9215, then compare notification behavior on Gentoo Linux, Ubuntu, and Android. Reproduce the missing incoming-chat sound while text notifications still appear; done means notification sound works on the affected platforms without regressing the existing popup.
