Before opening a feature request

• I searched existing reports to see if it is already requested.
• I checked the next branch to see if the feature has already been implemented

What is the user problem or growth opportunity you want to see solved?

well. personally for me i think it would be really cool if rofi had sound support (sfx). just like a game menu. i think it increases the overall look and feel of it. and most importantly it sounds fun. 😄

How do you know that this problem exists today? Why is this important?

this isnt particularly an issue. but just a UI/UX feat. 😅 . and i belive it is possible to use sounds to read out the contents of the menu etc. it can be really handy in some cases.
personally for me, i just wanted a game menu like experience. i have solved the opening and closing issue of rofi via scripts. but unable to solve for entry selection. entry choice etc.

Who will benefit from it?

i belive that everyone could benefit from it. generally speaking an interactive like game menu ish sounding rofi is nice. and i belive a lot of stuff can be made useful using this. like embedding a translator for example with sound support?
