Any way to hear game sound while tabbed out/minimized?

I want to be able to hear when a match is starting, etc.

some games 's ingame options allow you have keep the game running / playing sounds in the background , others dont , iam not sure if its possible if the game itself dosnt give you the option.

If what Wingfoot suggested doesnt help, run the game in a borderless window. Many games nowadays have this option (albeit often wrongly labeled "fullscreen" with the actual fullscreen mode labeled "exclusive fullscreen" because naming things what they are simply ain't hip enough). That'll prevent the game from knowing its not in focus.

yes actualy ! borderless window might just let the sounds play in the background .

I play borderless, thank you for the suggestions, though. I really do appreciate.

Remember that Wingfoots solution should be your preferred option as running a game in a window is less performance-optimal than fullscreen.
