Audio Output Selection for Break Notifications
Currently, break notifications automatically play through connected headphones when available. This creates a workflow issue: users often wear headphones for focused work (music, videos, etc.) but need to step away from their desk during the 30-second break period. When the "return to work" notification plays through headphones, users who have walked away can't hear it.
Current Workaround: Manually unplugging headphones before each break to ensure notifications play through speakers.
Requested Feature: Add a preference setting that allows users to choose the audio output device for break notifications (e.g., "Always use speakers" or "Follow system default"), independent of what audio device is currently being used for other applications.
This would greatly improve the break-taking experience by ensuring users can hear the return notification regardless of their current audio setup.
