Would the Vice-President-electvice president be required to always be in the senate chamber in order to break ties? If not, how often must she be there -- or does she need to be there at all to vote her tie-breaker vote?

I wonder does this make her less effective at what a vice-president president would otherwise be doing, with diplomacy or other governance.
