I just recently freed my brother from a stock rom and set him up with CM7. He's loving it so far, except his notification founds are no longer working. I've checked all volume levels, made sure he's not using a notification sound that no longer exists. He only gets the vibration, but no sound. Also, if you select a notification noise, it plays the demo just fine, just not as an actual notification.
Any ideas what's causing this?
Did you check the i would assume texting app to make sure its not set to silent?

Yessir, i checked both the texting (stock cm7) notification and the email notification. both have sounds assigned and are at full volume.
So when is the notification NOT going off? IE for a text, email, message from a social app, ect.

I tested everything you mentioned, texts, mms, email, facebook, twitter. He uses AVG for antivirus and normally it'll chime after scanning a new/updated app. That's not happening either. It will, however, vibrate each time instead of a chime. Very odd.

Have you tried reflashing the rom? I've had that happen to me once, and that fixed it. And for sound not to be working is odd, most time its vibrations that gives people issues.

i use handcent... not sure when it started but my texts make no sound anymore. i vibrate, pop ups work, volume is maxed but i get nothing. checked settings, reinstalled handcent and rebooted the phone but nothing is working
What happens when you "test notification" from within the handcent settings?
all i get is the vibration and the screen notification. double checked that the ringer tone is selected
Strange, I use handcent and the only other thing I can think of is to make sure the stock messaging app is set to not notify you.

missed a stupid notification setting. they really need to integrate these better. need to check 3 different places to make sure everything is right
Yeah, that one has gotten me before. Oh well, the price to pay for a substantially better messaging app!
Is anyone else having an issue in which notification sounds stop working after about an hour after the Xoom was booted?
I have rebooted it several times and keep having the same issue. After about an hour, the notification sounds no longer play, but the notification light will still blink. The clock alarm notification sounds still work at all times though.
I have tried changing the notification sounds on the apps but it has no effect. When it happens, all app notification sounds stop working. The only unaffected app is the Alarm Clock sound.
Reason (Bug found):
Ok, so after a lot of testing. I found what causes this bug.
I have 2 gmail accounts that I use for mail. So I set up 2 GMail Widgets on the home screen. One for each account, obviously. The problem happens after both accounts have received mail and the mail is accessed through clicking on the mails in the widgets to bring up the full gmail client. It doesn't matter if the accounts have both received mail at the same time or hours apart.
I did find that as long as you never open gmail through the widgets, the notification sounds keep working. I sent myself mails about once an hour to both accounts for over 8 hours using gmail on a PC. During this time, I simply listened for the notification sound after each email was sent. Every one worked perfectly, until after I opened the a mail item in each of the gmail accounts on the Xoom using the widgets. Then, I no longer received the notification sounds.
Now during all the times of testing, the notification light always works. Regardless of the notification sound. Also, sound within applications were never affected. However, when the notification sounds stopped going off due to this gmail widget bug, none of my applications notification sounds worked anymore.
After the notification sound bug kicks in, the only way to remedy it is to shut down the tablet and reboot.
Reason found and put into post above.
I have the opposite happening to me. My light won't blink on Gmail notifications but the sound works just fine. I've done multiple reboots too. Good find on what may be causing the bug though.

I am currently experiencing this issue but I dont have two gmail account widgets and after a reboot I still do not get any sound notifications.
I do have a gmail and an email widget. Perhaps I will remove both and reboot.
I am running Team EOS 3 (latest nightly)
Thanks
My DZ running 1.72, as the title says doesn't give an audio notification for new emails, I have tried POP and currently using IMAP, if that make any difference. All other notifications work fine, I have tried using my own files using created MP3 Ringtone and those supplied with the phone but still silence It shows in the notification bar, I don't know what else to do, any ideas?

is your volume on? that'd be funny if that was the issue. Do you have sound when you receive sms?
Yes volume is on, all other notifications and incomings calls are fine, it is just the email notification that doesn't make any sound.
Finally sorted out, what a noob mistake.While looking for some other settings, I found the setting to enable audio notification within the email software, being the first time I had set up email on my phone I had assumed that it would by default like sms!
Anyone else getting the whistling notification sound (the default sound) coming from the phone, but no actual notifications on it?
It keeps whistling at me for no reason.
Yesterday evening it was doing it like clockwork every 15mins, but sometimes after 10mins. By night time it was sometimes every 5mins, driving me mental!
I disabled Gmail, Email, disabled most of the funky control functions (like "Air xxxx" and "xxx motion") and it still does it.

No sound but was getting random vibrations however they seem to have stopped now. Unsure why.

I've had some phantom notifications too, but only the odd one. I was thinking it was something to do with my pebble but maybe it wasn't after all.

I have the same issue and its really irritating... Sound notification without any trace of what program is notifying. I have tried with apps that log the notifications , but it does not even show up there. My workaround, put standard notification to "quiet" and set specific other notification sounds for the apps you do want notification from. Could be done in the apps, or in for example light flow app.
Not had this problem yet, been using mine for about 2 days now, the only other apps that I have that would give me notifications is whatsapp and Facebook, maybe something you've installed?
£620 machine needs to work without workarounds.
Looks like I need to reset and install apps gradually.
Check Settings under "accessibility"
there is an option for:
Reminder of Notifications all 5, 10, 15 minutes
turning off
The new gmail does this, since it has tabs for social promotions and forums and.primary and whatnot,it will only generate a notification for the primary inbox but the other inboxes still make a.sound even without the notification. This might be what your experiencing, I get this.on.my HTC one
Possibly even a.combination.of this and the.notification reminder setting

This option is not available on Moto X (VZW). I'm seriously sick of these notifications.
chime sound with no notification.

Goto setting, device, accessibility, Turn off notification reminder.
So far I am loving this and I'm coming from the S7. Rooted and unlocked the bootloader yesterday but for the life of me cannot get notification sounds to work. Nine mail, hangouts, and bluemail do not make a noise. So far only facebook messenger and whatsapp make a noise on incoming messages.

I can't get hangouts to even appear in my notifications unless I open the app, and then I get hit with all the texts I received that it failed to notify me for. Google Opinion Rewards never notifies me either. I did the code *#*# and disabled background clean up, and in notification manager I have hangout enabled for everything, and in battery app, and recents window I disabled clean up, with no luck. Hoping it'll get fixed soon, but in the meantime it's frustrating.

Really? Funny because my S7 hangouts would always say no network and I would have to wait a few minutes for them to refresh. I figured out the sounds. it seems like the default tones didn't exist or something so after manually changing them it's working. I still cannot believe the quality of this phone, even the camera which isn't close to my S7 really is not that bad.
I did go in to the battery section and change skype, hangouts and my work email from closed with the app cleanup the phone has
