The XDG Sound Theme kitty will use to play the bell sound.
Defaults to the custom theme name used by GNOME and Budgie, falling back to the default freedesktop theme if it does not exist.
To change your sound theme desktop wide, create :file:`~/.local/share/sounds/__custom/index.theme` with the contents:
[Sound Theme]
Inherits=name-of-the-sound-theme-you-want-to-use
Replace :code:`name-of-the-sound-theme-you-want-to-use` with the actual theme name. Now all compliant applications
should use sounds from this theme.
