Kudos:

Arcane Scripters Guild and #ESOUIDev. Every time I jump in there, I come away with creative solutions to my LUA problems.

Aiiane/Aaeriele for patiently walking me through metatables.

Puddy for helping me understand how to use event handlers more efficiently/appropriately.

Flamage and Zolan for finding a bug with loading settings and helping me fix it.

Seerah for LibAddonMenu - so much time saved!

If you're interested in trying another addon with similar functionality: I've had a great time working through this with @zolannaloz and his version, Zolan's Chat Notifications, is probably worth a try! I also "borrowed" his idea to disable your own notifications.

This addon will play a sound of your choice (from a short list of in-game sounds) for a variety of events in chat. Let me know if you'd like an in-game sound added to the lists! I just tried to grab a variety of non-obtrusive to very-intrusive options that aren't used frequently in the ambiance of the game. Current events on which you can receive an alert:You also have the option to silence any messages you send (enabled by default).Allow you to individually choose which contacts play a sound or not.
