First of all, sorry in case this issue is a duplicate of another one.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

In alpha and beta versions of NVDA, a beep is heard when an error is logged. I am missing this beep when I am doing some tests on a stable NVDA (add-on tests or tests of NVDA itself).

Describe the solution you'd like

Add an option to configure when the error should make a beep with the 3 following choices:

  • "Always": i.e. in NVDA stable as well as alpha/beta
  • "Never": neither in NVDA stable nor in alpha/beta
  • "Only in dev releases": beeps in alpha/beta but not in stable release. It is the current behaviour and should be the default.

The option may be located in the advanced settings panel.

Describe alternatives you've considered

For now I have a global plugin in my scratchpad to do a similar job. But it's an issue when I make some tests with add-ons disabled.
