Epic 😎 Can you add an option to turn the sound effects on or off in the menu or preferences? Another slight problem I noticed is that when I have the sound effects on, the UI gets stuck for ~0.5 seconds to play the sound effect. Can you please fix that?
Added the sound effects in preferences. On my computer the lag only happens the first time any sound is played, not sure what to do about that.
The lag happens every time for me unfortunately.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? I can't replicate it on my machine
After the recent commit, I am not able to open preferences. I get the following error:

I don't get this error but I have (hopefully) a fix
In Qt, you can add files to a resource file, and then they will be loaded at start time. This might prevent the lagging when playing the sound for the first time (but at a potential cost of increasing the start-up time). If you want to try this, you can add the sound files to the zxlive/resources.qrc file. You then have to recompile the file to resources.py: https://www.pythonguis.com/tutorials/packaging-data-files-pyside6-with-qresource-system/
Perhaps we should just merge this as this is an easter egg feature, disabled by default. Thoughts?
I am for this: I can't replicate the lag on my machine and I also don't know what could fix the lag.
It is disabled by default already
The testing suite gives the error
from PySide6.QtMultimedia import QSoundEffect
E ImportError: libpulse.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Should a new library be included in the requirements.txt?
Sound effects are activated with the shortcut Ctrl+B.
