A feature request:
When sound level over some configurable time frame exceeds some configurable limit, application will alarm and/or optionally will run configurable system command (can be anything which can be run on a CLI)

Later also some kind of configurable smoothing value would be good. (See SleepAnalyser-application)

Maybe even dbus-interface so SleepAnalyser could later use VU-Meter to record also sound levels during the sleep.

Example usage case 1, if someone has problem with snoring, the application can alert to change position when this happens.
Snoring is known to cause sleep deprivation to snorers and those around them, as well as daytime drowsiness, irritability, lack of focus and decreased libido.
Example usage case 2:
Burglary-alarm.
