Pending "ping" sound when battle is found

i've lost countless battles before even choosing my lead because sometimes i tab out while showdown searches for a battle (it can take a lot in non-ou tiers) and didn't notice that a match was already found minutes ago and timer has already ran out.

i know there is battle music that starts when a match is found, but i (and maybe most of the people) often have that off because we are listening to something else or just don't like the battle music.

a ring-tone or ping-sound would be lovely to alert when a match is found with its own mute button, independent from the battle music


edit: heck, aside from the standard "ping", there could even be multiple iconic/funny sounds users could choose as the alert. maybe pokecenter healing sound, or a "pikAAAA!" sound, or jesse and james saying "prepare for trouble! and make it double!" or a lavos voice saying "unfortunate doesn't even begin to describe my series" LMAO
