So perhaps this is a feature working as intended, but I'll be damned if it isn't super annoying. Basically, even if my phone is on silent or vibrate, the minute I plug in a headset, it'll start playing notification sounds through the headset. I can understand this possibly being useful if my phone was in a loud mode. But when I'm listening to music in my car or something and the phone is on vibrate, it'll dim the music and play a notification sound. If it's on silent, it'll dim the music but not make a notification sound. Hopefully that was easy enough to understand. Basically I need it to stop adjusting the volume of the music when I receive a notification. Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm rooted stock and would prefer not to have to install a custom rom.
Thanks for any help guys

I can't believe there's no way to fix this, I've searched for a while and it seems to be a somewhat common problem. I was also trying to stay with stock ROM but I may flash CM if it fixes this. Could anyone else confirm?

Prior to froyo, as far as i remember this was not the issue.
But now, even when I am on call, and received an SMS or any other notification of some kind, mobile will ring notification sound with default volume settings, which happens to be quite loud, especially if you are listening to a call?
Is there any solution for hits ?
i have this problem, i have to keep my volume really low in case i get a notification when on a call. sorry havn't found a fix but hopefully someone has come across this before
just bumping this and adding some more info. my phone used to be fine, i think its since the froyo OTA update. im going to try rooting etc if i cant get it fixed
Now i'm having this really weird popping or crackling sound all throuhout using the phone (Not only though music and videos), if i unlock the phone, i hear the unlock sound then a pop, if i get a notification sound, i get a weird pop after it, sometimes when i type, and if i leave the phone on the desk and get a notification sound and vibration i hear it then some random pops or crackles afterwards ... anyone else suffering from that problem? and please help.
I also have this problem on most fresh installs of CM roms

I have long suffered the same issue that the OP is talking about. It is a seemingly random pop/crackle noise that happens AFTER touching the screen or after a vibration. It is very strange, almost like static buildup that is then played through the speaker. It doesn't matter if haptic feedback is on or off, or if the phone volumes are turned off. It also doesn't happen every time, or can happen multiple times in a row.
Someone mentioned at one time that it might be NFC related, but when having the problem I can toggle the NFC on and off and it doesn't fix it.
However, it has magically disappeared over time on certain roms, and I have managed to keep the same "data" backup that I reflash after a fresh rom install. A fresh install of nearly any CM-based rom has the problem. It leads me to believe that some setting stored in the data partition causes/fixes the problem. I would really like to figure out what it is so that I can actually do a fresh install without carrying over junk files from ancient rom installs. Does anybody have any ideas?

The crackling and pop sound is when you hear the DAC being muted after its not in use, This is totally normal, to reduce this effect try disabling any equalizers you may have or anything else that would modify sound in any way.
i cant seem to find a solution to this problem. no matter what volumes i adjust i cant seem to have my notifications mute while listening to music. emails, text, ect. the only solution ive come across is setting the notifications to silent which sucks when im not listening to music because then i have to go back to each app to turn my notifications back on. but even when setting to silent it will turn down my music for a second or 2 then go back up even when on silent.
this is the most annoying feature of android. i also had this issue with my nexus but before that i had the photon and after days of searching i found a mod that fixed the annoyance. but cant find the thread again.
can someone help? i know im not the only one. i hear it at least once or twice a week from customers and ive read it all over the web but the only suggestions we get are setting rington to silent which causes a bigger problem for when your done listening to music
I'm having a strange problem where notification sounds will spontaneously start playing at super low volumes. And the only way to rectify this temporarily is to do the hardware check under device help that was mentioned in another post. However this solution vanishes after the phone is restarted.
I noticed this with the stock notification. So I installed other notification using Zedge. They seem louder.

It's not a stock notification issue. I tried using an external sound. Same problem. It's really annoying and obviously a software glitch. I'm just surprised no one else is having the issue? Again the fix I'm using while effective at making the sound louder for notifications, stops the volume of media from being able to be controlled via the volume buttons.
I am having the sound issue as well.
The first time I noticed it, I was playing with the JBL speaker and when I took it off the volume was low...both for media and notifications. After a reboot, media and notifications seemed fine. Later I was showing a co-worker the JBL Speaker...this time, stopping the music before removing the Mod...the sound volume sounded fine. I think it may have something to do with removing the Mod while its being used??? Can anyone else recall what they were doing when they noticed the difference in audio levels?
I'm not doing anything... when I reboot EVERYTIME, the volume is messed up... It takes me messing with "device help" to get it working again.
Facing the same issue.
Let's hope they will fix this issue in next software update.
After restoring to stock from LineageOS, my device has no notification sounds. All that is heard is a static 'tick' noise (like when turning certain speakers on or off). Phone call ringing and alarms still work
Install base OTA NOUGAT???

Try flashing arise. Even without turning Dolby or viper on, will fix the silent notification bug.
Hey, I have the same problem, seems to have something to do with the audiofocus.
I don't even get notification sounds when I plug in my headphones.
The ony way I get the sound is, when the speaker or the headphones are in use by some other audio application, like the music player.
If someone has an solution please reply, I am open to test those.
Thanks!
Sound is back
I want to report a succes, after trying to update my mzp via ota the sound came back and the weriedest thing is, that the update even failed.
After the reboot I heard a "pling" and couldnt believe it so i tryed it out and it works. (after playing around I sideloaded the ota and it still works)
I hope this information helps to find a fix or helps tracking down the bug.
If the above solution doesn't work
Flash this Arise zip through TWRP!
It will bring back sound notifications!
But still before that i advise to take a nandroid backup!
Here is the link to the zip file!
