It doesn't do anything for me. I'm using standard Chrome on Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon. However Sound Found works, so I'm going with that.

I have multiple tabs open with the web app "textfree.us" I installed this extension and it does not seem to work? Any ideas or can you point me in the right direction? This is exactly what I need. I will have a dozen tabs open and one will play a sound and I have to look through them all. EDIT: The extension is grayed out. I will troubleshoot and report back. Thank you
