Is anybody having this problem? When I am playing music over bluetooth to my car stereo or to bluetooth headphones, I can't hear any of my notification sounds.
The music gets quieter for a second or two and if I really pay attention I can just barely make out the sound of the notification. But really the only way I know that I had a notification is that the music volume turns down for a bit.
With Lollipop, everything worked as expected. The volume of the music would turn down and the notification would play loudly. I'm not sure why this change happened.
Any ideas?
I'm having the same issue. I've found that if I turn up the volume DURING the notification the phone suddenly realizes the volume is too low and cranks it up for that one instance.

I am having an issue with the volume of the media player on the phone, in particular when I am listening to voicemail messages. I have the volume up all the way and you can barely hear it through a headset and it is very quiet on the speaker phone or normally. Is there anyway to force higher volume or is anyone else experiencing this? I have checked the volume under settings and it is also set to max.

This sounds typical.
On the other hand, are you saying that voicemails sound even fainter than normal phone calls?
Not sure if anyone else has experienced this, but when my Note II is set to mute or vibrate, the sound switches back on whenever I single-press the button on the supplied earphones. Is this some bizarre setting somewhere, or is it a known fault, or is it just me?
--update-- When listening to music and I press the button, the sound momentarily comes out of the speaker on the phone itself before pausing & switching to unmuted. Looks like a problem with PowerAmp; doesn't do it with the stock player.
I'm currently using a stock based GB rom, Aurora 0.7.
I have a strange issue when listening to music with my headphones connected. I have the phone in silent mode so without the headphones connected the notifications make no sound. However, with the headphones connected and still in silent mode, when I get a notification the sound plays out of the phone speakers. I would expect this to not make a sound at all, or play the notification sound through the headphones.
Is there a way to change this behaviour?
Thanks.
For anyone interested, I gave SoundAbout a try, but this did not work. The best workaround seems to be Hearing Saver. The settings can be updated so there are no notification sounds played at all when the headphones are connected. Both these apps require running a background service.
i keep my phone on vibrate all day at work. i also listen to music. i use klipsch S4a II's with the android specific in-line button. if i just use my headphones to listen to music, everything is fine. but as soon as i press the inline button to pause or double click to skip a track, my phones sound profile changes itself from vibrate to ringer. needless to say, if im not paying attention and i unplug my headphones and get up from my desk, my phone is no longer on vibrate and has rung at inappropriate times in a meeting. my note2 used to do this but fixed itself at some point. not sure if it was a software update that fixed it or a setting somewhere. ive looked all over and i dont see anything on the note3 to adjust to change this behavior. anyone else with this problem?
i guess im the only one with this problem then?
Hello there, I've been trying to figure out a problem on my M9. I don't know if it is actually a problem or just a setting I can't find. Either way I come from having an LG G3. I also use Bluetooth headphones. On my G3, when I got a text, the sound would dim down on the headphones if I was listening to music so that the notification would pop over the sound. I can not seem to get this phone to do that. I thought that was just a standard Android feature. If I am listening to music, the phone will vibrate upon receiving a notification but I'm not actually getting the sound along with it. I will get a notification sound if listening to music through the Boomsound speakers though.
Any ideas? I've been looking around online hoping for something and have come up empty handed so far.
Same issue here, when listening to my external bluetooth speaker, it doesn't come through, and I miss the text
