Notifications sounds not working - Kindle Fire General

I'm using 6.2 rooted with gtalk, I get notifications but no sound. I tried setting up sound settings, but it always goes back to off (the slider for notifications going all the way low).
Anyone else having this issue?
Also on the top right it shows the sound icon with an "x" on it, meaning its on silent. When I play videos or games the sound is perfectly fine, just with notifications in having this issue.

There is this topic already existing. Try to search and find it.

Muting certain notification sounds on Nexus S 4G...

I have had a Nexus S 4G for a while and I'm getting a lot of notification noises whenever the 4G signal is lost or acquired and just getting random notification noises overall. Is there a way to turn these sounds off on the stock ROM or is there a ROM that allows control over all notification sounds? It seems like the stock ROM only allows one notification noise for everything pretty much.
Have you tried going into each individual app and check everywhere in your settings app? For each app and section (most) there should be a place to check/uncheck notification sounds. You could also try a market search for something relevant :\?

Getting two notification tones when I get a text?

This is confusing, using either the stock app or a different messaging app if the notification sound is different than the default. Such as the default notification sound is Whisper but I set in the SMS app to be Good News. If the screen is off it plays Whisper THEN Good news back to back. But if the screen is on it doesn't do that.. I rebooted and it stopped but then came back. wtf
This only seems to happen if the screen is OFF if the screen is ON it doesn't happen..
Edit: I think i found the issue. Device -> Accessibility -> Notification Reminders - Had this on but only to alert after 10min but it seems to be bugged and causes two alerts at the same time.

Nexus 6P: Strange notification behavior observations

I have had the Nexus 6P for about 1.5 months now. I am running Pure Nexus, and I use LightFlow to control notifications.
I've noticed strange notification behavior with this phone in general. Here they are listed.
1. On a clean reboot, notifications will work normally...for about a day or so. After some time (I don't know exactly when or how), notifications randomly stop. They only come through after turning the screen on or entering the respective app, such as a calendar app. An example is as follows: I noticed that I didn't get calendar notifications for 2 events; as soon as I opened the calendar app, they fired. This behavior happens on all my Nexus devices: a Nexus 5X, 6P and 9.
2. The notification LED does not work in call. In order to make it work, you have to enter the notification light settings and turn on the option to "Enable notification light when screen is on".
3. If music is playing or if you are doing something like Google Navigation, the notification sound will not work, but the vibration/notification LED will. Once exiting that app, it will work again. What is strange is that it "sounds" like the notification sound should play, because the music or Google Navigation will duck out...but no notification sound comes through.
Has anyone else seen this kind of behavior? Any thoughts on how to fix?

S8 Phantom notifications

When I have a default notification sound set in my S8, I get a ton of notification sounds, but nothing in the notification bar. It's extremely annoying. I turned off all the app notifications I could, but it didn't help.
I also tried Do Not Disturb with custom exceptions so I would only get notifications for the apps I want, but they are still silent.
Is there a third party app that will mimic what Samsung's DND is supposed to be doing or a way to shut off the phantom notifications?
I'm really starting to hate this phone. For several reasons.
Suggestions
Hello,
I have not had the same issue as you but I've definitely had problems with things syncing on time or out of order. I'm sure you already have, but be sure to dig deep into phone notification settings but individual app settings as well to see if anything is off. If you run the internal app closer, does the issue still occur? Worst case scenario, you could factory reset your phone and see if that corrects the issue.

Notification sounds

Hi! I was wondering, is there any way to turn off the sound on notifications for all apps (like Facebook, Instagram, YouTube etc) but still have the phone ring when someone calls me? I have either WiFi or data on all the time, and I get lots of notifications that aren't that urgent. I would like those to vibrate, but have the phone ring, since usually calls are more important than a YouTube video notification, for example. I couldn't find any way to do so in the settings nor did I find a third party app to help with my request. Any advice would be much appreciated
I would say that the most easy way is to create a sound file with total silence and use it as the default notification sound. Some apps have separate notification settings, you might need to disable sound (or select the same "silent sound") in the app itself.
If you want more customization options, autonotification app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joaomgcd.autonotification&hl=en) is your friend
If you just long press it in the notification bar when it arrives you can set up exactly the type of notification you want from that app, it does not take log and as time goes by you get less and less, some you might want a special sound others vibrate, some show in status bar others not, its custom for each app.
