Problem description

To have a ticking sound in break time and in work time (although the most important, for me, would be in break time).

I would like the possibility to select the ticking sound in custom ways, for example, to have a ticking sound in short breaks but not in long breaks, or in both of them.

Possible solution

Pomotroid can do this, so maybe it helps.

Research direction
Explore the existing sound notification mechanism in the stretchly codebase (likely in src/). Check how the app currently handles break alerts. Look at the suggested pomotroid implementation for ideas. Determine where to add the ticking sound logic and how to make it configurable per break type.
