Describe the enhancement

When loading filament, there needs to be a beep when the LCD display asks for the filament type.

Typically there is a gap between when you put the filament in and when the display asks what type of filament it is. Typically I will have turned around to do another task and forget the printer is waiting to know the filament type. A beep when the question is asked or maybe after 10 seconds (as that would allow people watching to do it and not be annoyed by the beep) and then a beep every 30 seconds until the question is asked would be really useful.

The alternative is to ask what the filament type is as its pushed in an the user is standing Infront of the machine.

Expected functionality

Best:
When the filament load process starts the machine immediately asks the user what type of filament is being loaded (rather than wait till sometime later in the process)
OR
When the filament is loaded at the point the display asks the filament type beep or chime to attract the users attention
OR
If the machine has been waiting 10-30 seconds for the user to respond to the filament type: beep or chime (every 20-30 seconds)

The issue is still important to me.
I still find the printer sitting right next to me waiting for me to answer what type of filament it is loading
