On my computer using Chrome, when someone responds to me in a chat, if I'm in a different window - the tab for gmail starts flashing saying that there's a new response to read.

By 'flash' I mean it alternates between saying '____ Says' and gmail. Not flashing as in lighting up but as in you see movement from the text alternating.

Guys, try the following:

Be logged in, go to https://mail.google.com/mail/?tab=mm#settings/chat

Go to the 3rd part: Voice and video chat:

Expand: Verify your settings

Choose the correct hardware. Should be easy.
