Description of Changes

This PR mainly fixes the bug manifesting on AppImage where the default notification sound for the appimage only works on the first session of a fresh install, any subsequent run wont play any sound due to how i saved the path on fresh install (and because AppImage's app resources are ephemeral and uses different path on every single launch).

And also clicking on the preview button now directly plays the sound instead of opening the user's default audio player installed on their system.

Rationale behind Changes

the first one was a bug. And as for the 2nd, i accidentally got my main music playlist on AIMP wiped because for whatever god forsaken reason, if i already have a playlist and then decided to open a random audio file, it wipes my existing playlist clean.

Suggested Testing Steps

Make sure nothing is broken on windows.
On AppImage, start with a fresh install, login to RCheevos, start a game and observe the notification still works. Now exit PCSX2 and reopen the appimage, start a game and the default notification sound should still works.

Did you use AI to help find, test, or implement this issue or feature?
