Anybody here knows how to completely silence the notifications while listening to music? Because even in Vibrate and Silent mode, notification sounds still kick in while listening and it's annoying especially if you are a serious listener.

Inbuilt music player doesn't have the option to turn off "Reduce volume on focus loss"
I would suggest using a different music player.

I'll look into it.
Try enabling do not disturb mode from notification tiles.

Hi everyone,
I've noticed when I listen to my music (using HTC Music player), the music got paused when a notification sound comes up and when the notification sound is done, the music resumes.
I love those notification sounds, but if I get a notification like every minute, my music keeps pausing for a few seconds and resume back.
It gets annoying :-s
Is there a workaround or a fix for this?
I hope someone can help me
I dont know if its the same on sense as i am using cm7, but there is an option to always play notifications over a certain speaker etc.
Alternatively, you could use Tasker or something similar to disable notifications when music is playing
Hey everyone, quick question. I recently starting using Pandora and notice that when Im listening to Pandora and get a text message or email, the music pauses for a few seconds to let the notification sound. Is there a way to not let this happen? Thanks
Pandora has always been like that. As are most apps, they lower the volume to allow the notification tone go through and than jump back to full volume. I don't think there's a way to change that. Just be glad your Pandora doesn't auto change songs every 45s after a 'taste' of every song because the update has an issue with a rom.
just turn down notifications sounds to vibrate or silent, no interruptions
Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone has a solution for disabling notification sounds while listening to music in my car via AUX cord. I have one that adapts through a cassette and while I'm listening, evening when my phone is set to silent, my notifications still ring at top volume which is very annoying. I know with CM7 they had a fix for this.

Really? When my phone is on vibrate or silent, the notifications don't make sound when listening to music.

Through an aux cord?

I'm having trouble with both the "mute" sound mode and DND even with no exceptions set. Based on both the manual and the description in the UI they should be muting my media sounds, but they're not. I even rebooted the phone into safe mode and set DND with mute and loaded up web pages and youtube and there it goes playing sounds when my phone shouldn't be making a peep. I did a search for mute and didn't turn up much on the forums. From the S9 user manual it says "Mute: Set your device to make no sounds.", so I take that to include media just like with every other device that has a mute feature.
Has anyone else experienced this, or can replicate by setting their mute & DND then trying to play a youtube video? Before I go through the headache of a factory reset I'd like to confirm if it's just my device. It's really important to me that I'm able to throw my device into silent mode and that it's actually silent and not going to start screaming at max volume if I'm reading the news and it decides to autoplay a video.
DND mutes notifications and ringtones, I'm guessing their wording of also muting media means something other than apps that play music or videos that you manually invoke
Use the media volume control to mute media like that
Well, I was able to solve this with Tasker. I set up a variable watcher on interrupt and whenever it changes away from all it mutes my media volume. The downside is it doesn't appear that Tasker can do anything with the Samsung sound profiles, so I can't actually use the mute option to mute my phone.

Contact Taskers dev, sure he'll be able to help
Hi all,
I have updated my Pixel 2 XL to Android Pie, and I think I've got my head around the Do Not Disturb functionality. At present I want to see all notifications, but I want them all to be silent apart from Alarms. I've also set it so that media volume is muted in DND, as I find it really annoying when in DND and some advert on something, or a video blurts out loudly when you don't expect it.
This is all great, apart from when I hook my phone up to my car via bluetooth. Unless I take my phone off DND, I can't hear any music play via google music. Before Pie, I used to be able to have a seperate volume for bluetooth, but it now seems that everything is just muted and I can't alter the volumne unless I turn DND off, which I don't really want to do everytime I get in the car and never had to do before. I thought about setting google music to "override DND", but when I look at the notifications it is already set to override.
So, why isn't the music overriding the muted media of DND, and how can I get music to play without having to turn off DND when connected via bluetooth?
Hope that makes sense!
Chris

Music needs media volume. You muted it with DND so there's your reason. You can try not muting it with DND and just keeping the media volume low or manually muted. That's why they made the volume button to control media by default.

Media volume is muted by DND, Play music has override of DND, therefore it shouldn't be muted. Just doesn't make sense to me. I know I can just not have DND mute media, but that's not what I want here.

It does? Where? I don't see an override DND anywhere in Play Music settings.
Also, with Android Pie it remembers your Bluetooth volumes for each device. So if don't mute media, keep your media volume low but connected to your car or whatever Bluetooth, you'll get you volume back to what you had it.
In my case, a lot of times I actually mute my media and notifications because I get it on my watch. But when I connect to my car, I get all my Play Music fine without adjustments.

Go to Settings, then Apps & Notifications, Select Google Play Music, Select Notification, then Select Playback, Select Advanced and here you'll find Override Do No Disturb, which is on.
I understand what you're saying, just keep media on in DND, but keep it down low and have a different volume for Bluetooth, and that's exactly how I used to do it before Pie. But the problem comes from when you have watched a video at some point, forgotten to turn the volume back down, and then at some inappropriate time in DND sound blurts out. I was hoping that avoid that happening with the new media mute setting in DND but still have the bluetooth sound override that setting.
I'm not an android expert by any stretch of the imagination, just thought it was worth asking the question.

The keyword in your steps is "Apps & Notifications". The only thing that'll override DND with that setting is notifications coming from Google Play and not media volume.
