It works again in 2024 which is great! The only bug I've seen so far is that the soundboard doesn't work for commentators other than Seirawan. Also I'd like to be able to enable the sounds not just during games but also during analysis board and studies.

No longer works - the developer hasn't responded to others with the same problem for a long time. Looks like it has been abandoned, which is a shame because it was fantastic when it worked.
