Does anyone know how to mute the mod attachment sound?
I haven't seen anything in settings, nor do I know a way to mute an app.

im sure if you have root you can go into the system files and just delete the sound
The sound is in the ModService Apk, which will turn into a big ugly mess if I edit. Why - we get updates for it via play store, and it's a system app.
The sound id outputted via ringer. why you're ringer is off, but media is on (and playing) you can attach the speaker and have it switch seamlessly with no sound.
The sound will play on DND if it is priority only, and that is with only stared contacts going through. However Alarms only and mute all are fine
I found a clunky, but semi easy, way to do it is to turn DND(must be alarms only or mute all) on before you attach, and off afterwords.
I think I'm going to uses a taker notification to automate the ringer method, maybe using quick settings
ex:
task 5SecRingOff
set var %ring to %VOLR # store the current volume in a variable called ring
Set ringer to 0 # turn of ringer
wait 5 seconds # allow time to attach
set ringer to %ring # restore old volume
(comments are python style, I've been using a lot of it lately.)
However, I still would be interested to see if we could disable via settings, shell or adb.
I tried muting all notification sounds on all Motorola apps. This would require an edit to the apk from what I have tried so far. I will dig a little further on my day off and run a logcat to see what triggers the noise and see if it can be an edit that will allow updates to go through. It might take a few days if a modified apk isn't what you're looking for.
I'm fine with that.
Just in case you missed it, the sound goes through the same audio stream as the phone's ringtone does. It does not go through notifications or media.
Is it possible to block it from accesssing that stream. Disabling phone permissions doesn't do it.

My Phone seems to have itself stuck with the Ringtone on silent. Every setting says its up. Audio Manager has all the volumes up. Message tones work and so do system / media and alerts. But the ringtone will not make a noise..
When I press the volume up button on the home screen.. it comes up with Silent Ringtone Selected..... Is there any way to get rid of this?
Thanks in advance
Solved....
Just Wipe data + cache
reload ROM and restore all apps back from default and bingo...
I know this may seem over kill but it works and I really need my ringtone on the phone (wife due to go into labour any day soon)
Thanks

Try fixing it with "AudioManager Widget" from the android market.

Silent Ringtone
I'm actually having this same problem, and it's 2 years later. I believe that I have found the solution though.
I'll start out by saying I got my Droid Pro about a week ago.
I downloaded the "Voice Recorder" app by Mamoru Tokashiki.
I would record audio for ringtones (generally song snippets because I'm too lazy, or stupid, or I like to make more work for myself than downloading the actual ringtones). I would retitled the files (.3gp) and hit "Set as Ringtone." Then if I toggled my volume rocker it would say Silent Ringtone Selected.
I came to these forums and immediately knew that I didn't want to root my phone or do anything like that. So a lot of people suggested it was the software. I ditched the software and downloaded "Tape-a-talk" by Markus Drosser. It records in both .3gp and .wav. I use the .wavs because they sound so much better.
It worked for me once, but then I started getting the same message. It couldn't have been a problem with the software because I ran two different apps. It's something with the way that the android system saves the files.
I tinkered around with a process that is working for me now (it involves a lot of turning on and off which is annoying, so get prepared).
1. Open recording app (I use tape-a-talk) and record your audio. It shouldn't matter the duration (I thought I was getting the silent ringtone error because my files were too long, but that's not the case).
2. Immediately set the recording (labeled with some generic date like 03-19-2012.wav) as your ringtone. Toggle the volume rocker to check if you get the silent ringtone selected. (If you do, then try re-recording as .3gp. If that still doesn't work then this process probably won't work because something else major is wrong with your phone).
3. Turn off the phone.
4. Power back up (30s downtime).
5. Open up Settings>Sounds>Phone Ringtone. If 03-19-2012 is set as your ringtone then you should be pretty okay. Go back to the home page and toggle the volume rocker again to double check.
6. Turn off the phone then power it back up.
7. Go back into your recording app and find the generic file, rename it to what you want.
8. Set the newly titled .wav or .3gp as your ringtone.
9. Toggle the rocker to make sure it saved properly.
10. If it did, then turn your phone off. Turn the phone back on and open Settings>Sounds>Phone Ringtone.
If everything worked it should have your ringtone set and saved with the new file name.
Then you're free to enjoy.
That process works for me.
Some people may still claim it is the software, but in my experience it is a matter of how your phone ends up saving the recorded files.
This information is useless if you're talking about downloading a ringtone, btw.
Hope this helps anyone in the future.

i had the same problem so i searched in every option from settings
so here are the steps...
settings -> sound -> ringtone -> phone ringtone
when you open the "phone ringtone" you will see that your phone is set on "silent". well all you have to do is to choose another ringtone from that list, or, if you want a song from your music player you just set a random ringtone from the list and then go in "music" and set as ringtone your favourite song.
hope it helped ^_^
Changed my default notification and ringtone sound to one that I downloaded. It plays fine when I select it in the Settings --> Sound --> Ringtone/Notification. However it does not play when I get a call or a TXT. And yes, my volume is up.
On a side note, I am so ticked that I cannot set the ringtone and notification volume levels independently!! I cant stand the wait for ROOT so we get some good ROMS

Maybe a dumb question, but have not installed any type of profile app right? I use profile apps so I can quickly change to different setups for night, meetings etc.
Well I do have Sound Manager installed. Since the ringtone and notifications is tied together right now, this app is mostly useless.
I did verify that sounds were turned up. Once I selected a sound that is included with the phone everything is fine. really a pain.
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.

Heya,
so, as the title says, I'm having issues muting the notification and app sounds, while still allowing phone calls to get through and ring the phone out loud.
In the past, this was achievable by the Do Not Disturb mode. Right now however, it doesn't mute notifications anymore, as that is now done by the new "silent" mode. But that one also mutes incoming calls, which is completely unusable for me (I have occasional on-call nights when I need to be available on my phone, even if I'm sleeping, yet find the constant pinging of the apps super annoying).
The only working solution I found was to go into notification settings and block notifications from most of the very frequent apps... Which is annoying, as I also have to not forget to toggle the notifications back the next day.
Is there still a way to achieve the "Mute media and notifications, keep calls" combo in Android 12 + MIUI 13? Thanks!
On most phones the phone ringtone and notification volume is separate, is that not the case in your device?

Unfortunately not, instead, I have media, calls and alarm clock (as seen in the screen).
If I mute media, I still get notification and call sounds. If I mute the bell, I no longer get either. Dnd has no effect on the notification sounds.

This certainly sucks, can't every smartphone company share good things from each other instead of adopting all the bad changes. look around on Google maybe there are apps for this.

Hey have you found any solution? As I'm also struggling with same problem
It sucks, but until they fix it, you can use this app.
On the downside, it not only mutes sound, but completely mutes the notification including the badges , though. Anyone please post if you have a better solution.
i know im late. but i found a fix. (kinda) if you remove your notification sound completely. through settings, notifications and vobrations, notification sound and then while in the themes app. ringtone, and then no romg tone. even tho i thaught it changed the ringtone. if you go through settings first. ot will change the notification sound and not the ringtone. hope this helped
While waiting patiently for A13 ROMs for my current daily driver to mature a bit more I am using a silent audio file for the notification sound. I can't believe all these years MIUI still doesn't have an option to unlink calls and notification volume.
