Hi, I am having a problem with the beep sound of Pomodoro.

I am using Pomodoro (Fokus) mode for my work. Everything worked fine but one day I stopped hearing the beeping from the app. Sometimes it does beep, sometimes it doesn't which caused me for a few times a time management issues as I was working on the task longer than I should. What could be the solution?

Hi there,
app version: 2.11.0.0.
operation system: Microsoft Windows 11 Home

Is the app open while the pomodorro starts/ends?
Is the Pomodoro notifcation shown?

The app is in the form of minimized window. Usually when I use ALT+Tab to switch between windows I am working in the beep sound works. But when I minimize the window with the app with the button minimize the beep sound is not working.
I am not sure what you mean by Pomodoro notification shown. Could you pleaase explain me better. I could make a printscreen.

When the app is minimized, Windows puts it to sleep and it can no longer play sounds.
The app should show a Windows notification when the pomodoro timer stop/finishes a session. Can you check if notifications are enabled for the app? Aren't they showing for you?

I looked into Windows Notifications and I found out that Notifications in Windows were turned off. I turned them on and the problem resolved. Thank you for the help!
