Controlling to what apps the keyboard's media buttons apply #9

I frequently run into having my keyboard's media button either not doing anything or starting/stopping other media than the one I intended to control.

Scenario: I have Spotify open, but then a couple of YouTube videos in the browser, maybe the Sonos app as well. I now press Play/Paus on the keyboard because someone walks into my office - and instead of pausing the sound it adds the noise from a YouTube video to the already too much noise to converse. Or I have WhatsApp open - and that hijacks the media buttons so that they do nothing.

If I could use a Raycast Extension to set the priority of which apps I'm controlling with the media keys I'd be a happy camper.
