A sound alert and/or DBD window takes focus when a match starts?

I know you can't fix the killer queues for 2v8.

I am still going to play sometimes.

I am not going to stare at dbd for 10-15 minutes while nothing happens, I'll be on youtube, I'll leave the room, I will forget DBD exists. Very occasionally this can happen even with shorter 1v4 queues.

I've not missed whole games as a result of this (or had my teammate miss a huge amount of time, at least in this 2v8 iteration) but any amount of time wasted is bad right? & even a little delay can make a match uncompetitive & less fun for all involved.

If there's anything feasible to maximise dbd, shift focus to it, make a noise when minimised, etc when a match starts, I would welcome it. I appreciate this may not be possible (these all sound like tactics that an annoying game/program might abuse so I guess OSes/Engines may not be favourable to allowing them) but if there is it'd improve the experience in this instance.
