Add a notification sound for new messages in chat that plays when you are tabbed out.
Add ability to turn on a notification sound for new messages in channels you are in, but you are tabbed out. It could be set to: notify about every message, notify about friend message, do not notify about new messages. The sound could be a simple BLIP sound.

A sound notification is useful for small streams as usually the first 30 mins to first hour the stream stats empty and the streamer tends to forget about checking the chat.
It needs of course the avility to be turned off once the stream is in full paced mode but I am sure most small streamers miss chats because they get used to stream to the void....

I do not want to miss a single person in my chat especially when playing a fast paced game. It would be an awesome feature to have so you could enable or disable it. A bleeping sound enables you to glance at the chat and respond immediately before it scrolls out of view.
I missed an important birthday message in my chat - I was sad about that. I watched my VOD back and they did not stay long as I did not respond in time/see their message.
Please enable this feature as my twitch viewers are top priority.

Upvote. I realize this is not something the top streamers want, but it's a constant request by new streamers.

I suggest a sound effect when someone "@s" or 'pings' you in the chat you are currently watching. Same goes with receiving 'whispers' as well.

I can't believe they don't have sound notifications for when you get a chat message from your users on TWITCH! Like wow. I'd like to request this simple thing be added.

This feature still does not exist, it's terrible.
It is the #1 feature for all new streamers. -

I should not need a 3rd party plugin or client to get audible notification when I get a chat message. This is all the more important for new streamers who do not have a huge base yet and due to infrequent messages, might miss someone asking questions without it.
