Show which window is currently playing sound

Is your feature suggestion related to a problem? Please describe. Sometimes I've got like 5 windows open across two or three Desktops. The Macbook's Play/Pause button is finicky and doesn't like to default to my music player, so sometimes I hit the button and it starts playing sound from some random browser tab and I have no idea where it is.

This was extra problematic because the sound was coming from a tab in Orion, where I had tabs hidden. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Describe the solution you'd like It would be awesome if, just like in many browser tabs, Alt-Tab showed a little speaker icon next to any window that's playing sound (in the window switcher view).

Hi @craigostrin,

This is a great idea. I don't know if macOS APIs can provide such info for AltTab though. I'll look into it.

Thank you~
