You can add and remove rules in the Application Rules section of the application.

From the Command Line

# Add a rule to disable sound effects for an application
$ kbs add-rule -r disable -a "C:\Program Files\MyApp\MyApp.exe" 

# Remove a rule for an application
$ kbs remove-rule -a "C:\Program Files\MyApp\MyApp.exe"

Rule Types

• enable - Enable sound effects for the application.
• disable - Disable sound effects for the application.
• exclusive - Only play sound effects for the application.

The global rule can only be set to enable or disable. By default, the global rule is set to enable.

List Rules

$ kbs list-rules

Set the global rule

The global rule is used as the fallback for any application that does not have a specific rule set. By default, it is set to enable.

$ kbs set-global-rule -r disable

# Retrieve the current global rule
$ kbs get-global-rule
