@dangrous Seems like a backend issue, pusher data is not updated when toggle the sound preference

[dangrous]

Let me see if this is intended or not, I feel like there was some discussion around it that I recall, and it might be expected behavior?

EDIT: expected - #31055 (comment)

[dangrous]

Either way this should definitely not be a deploy blocker, as the syncing never existed in the first place.

Primarily just trying to figure out if we should keep this issue open to have it call the BE or leave it and do nothing.

@Beamanator I see you're assigned to #36455 - I think we only need one of these; which would you prefer to keep open?

[Beamanator]

Haha good point!

I'd say the one I'm assigned to just cuz it's been opened longer? Maybe? Feel free to take over, I don't need an extra issue or anything hahaha
