So basically my OP5 plays notification sounds even though it is on muted and on DnD. The alert slider is in muted position. Apparently Android treats my notifications as media sounds and plays them unless media sounds are muted. This problem started on its own, I did not change anything in the settings. It annoys the **** out of me so I would be grateful if anyone could help.

Same here, I've tried also to wipe the cache from recovery, reboot, set/unset the ringtone, etc. but the problem is still there.
It seems also OnePlus 6 does the same: forums.oneplus.com/threads/double-notification-sound-notification-sound-while-on-vibrate-and-dnd.1051359/

I'm sure most of you know what I'm talking about. If you recieve any notifications When listening to any audio through headphones (or through the mini usb port), the device pushes the notification sound through the speaker. This is fine when having a ringer enabled because I'd obviously want to hear the ring. What I dislike though, is when I have notfications (rings, text messages, etc.) on silent or vibrate, it pushes the audio that I'm listening to through the speaker still. I've always disliked this in WM. My PPC6700 did the same thing, but now I'd really like to know if there's a way to change this.
Now that I have an 8GB SD card, my Titan has started to become my primary mp3 player. I do FOH sound at a local club, and when playing music between bands, it's really annoying to have the music suddenlly cut out because a phone call is coming in. Likewise when I'm quietly watching MobiTV with my headphones on at work, and suddenly, Survivorman is blaring through the speaker because a call is coming in...You get the point. The ringer is off, but the phone still trys to let a ring through the speaker anyway, and since no ring is selected, it pushes any audio being played through.
I realize that this relatively simple problem probably does not have a simple solution as this is probably buried deep in the architecture of how WM handles audio gateways...that almost sounded like I knew what I was talking about; I can assure you that I do not . This is where you guys come in. I'm willing to test any ideas you guys have got. I don't care if it f&#*s up my phone...a hard reset isn't going to ruin my day. I'd just like a solution for this.
Ideas??
Thanks for your help and for this forum!..it has saved my phone more then a few times already.
Me too having the same problem. I listen to music via my bluetooth mono headset and these notifications (whcih I get plenty) disconnect the bluetooth audio gateway, forcing me to reach out to my phone and enabling the audio gateway again.
Yeah, I hate that too! I have the i760, one other thing on this phone I dislike is that the volume must be on to hear audio through my headphones. But there I am in a store listening to some rock at a loud volume, and there it is playing for the entire f'n store to hear when I get a call, thanks PPC!
Possible Solution!!!!
Might I recommend a Profiler. Like PPCProfiler. Just Google it.
What you could do is create a profile called music or what ever you want to name it. Then you could set up that profile to turn ringers on with the volume level you like and with or without vibration and select silent or vibrate only for the notifications. You could really but together any combination. I believe with PPCProfile you can even make a profile as a Headset Mode. So it will auto detect the headset and switch without having to do anything else.
Cheers.

Thanks for the reply, but a profiler isn't exactly what I'm looking for. I've had them before in previous roms. The problem isn't that it's an inconvienence to switch to silent or vibrate. It's that when things are silenced or on vibrate, any background audio is pushed through the speaker while the notification is going off. Meanwhile that audio that I want to be played cuts out of the path that I want it going through (ie. headphones).
Thanks tho...I'm open to any ideas.
I was thinking on the way in, as I got annoyed by my music getting interrupted to tell me I had a new gmail message, that it might be somehow possible to play alert tones without muting default volume. The official AIM app manages to do this somehow, and I've been told back in the day it didn't interrupt anything when an alert played, so I'd like to try to bring this back somehow.
My thoughts are that it should be doable either in the notifications code or the audio code itself. I'm planning to jump into the CM5 source head first tonight, but it would be nice to know where to go about starting looking - is anyone familiar enough with how this works to tell me if it's plausible, and which section of the code it should be in?

this would be great! I mean, whats the point in a blinking red trackball, if it still interrupts music with the sound
Back in the RC29&30 days this was the normal behavior for Android. It was changed to the current action of pausing the ongoing music with RC33 (pretty sure). As much as I would love my music to not be interrupted, I prefer the current method to the old "mixing" method. Where it would just play both sounds at the same time (pretty annoying actually). What would be ideal to me is the way my SEM600i did it, when I was listening to music (or watching a video) it would just beep and vibe when an alert came in & the music continued to play. This way I knew something was happening (be it a call or message) and could check my phone if I wanted, or keep on listening uninterrupted.

I agree with this. Would love a simple beep rather than the whole notification tone.
id prefer a dim of the music volume then the tone, when it stops altogether its quite annoying especially in my car with the speakers up. if it just dimmed the sound down to give the notification preference it wouldnt be so disturbing and it wouldnt go loud silent super loud silent loud every time i get a text

This would actually be ideal, I'm going to look into it and see if it's possible to do this.

I think is is ideal as well but I am not sure if Apple has a patent on that. No other phone that I know of uses that except the iPhone.

I had an SE phone that did that sometime ago... And i am pretty sure that Nokia N95 8GB also does it...
It it just me, or is the stock rom shocking for poor sound quality?
Popping, clicking, missed notification sounds, cut/muted odd notifications - its all very irritating.
I've had to turn all the UI sounds off because of the popping/clicking noises that follow it.
I hope they fix it.
I´m glad, that I´m not the only one with this problem.
Did you try turning OFF the Audio Effects in Settings > Sound and Notification?
Also, there is a known issue with volume ramp-up for the first 1-2 seconds of alarms and notifications sounds. Will cause a very short sound to "not play" because the first second of the audio plays at zero volume.
I use my own MP3 files edited to add 2 second silence to the beginning of the playback, as a workaround. (Also separates the vibe and sound so the sound can still be heard clearly when vibe+sound is on - the original reason I added the 2 seconds. Because I like those sounds.
There is also at least one app to force full notification/alarm playback volume from the start of playback. Haven't tried it, others have posted about it here.

Yup, turned the Audio Effects stuff - first thing I did.
It doesn't do it on 3rd party roms, Only the stock rom. It's frustrating A-F
I Have the nexus 6p on version 6.0. Just this morning my phone was working fine and all of a sudden I have No sound audio. Notifications work. I cannot hear any sound apps like youtube, music players.. Do Not Disturb is not on. I go into sound and notification and everything is turned on and all the way up. When changing a ringtone I can hear all the options.. But NO audio... I have factory wiped/data my phone.
Please help

click volume up or downONCE .... there's an arrow pointing down to the far right of the volume slider... click that.
your volume is turned all the way down on one of the 3-4 options there
Hello.
When I am listening to music and receive a notification, the music still sounds but during the seconds of receiving the notification it is completely distorted and then continues normal.
I'm trying to get into all the settings, but I don't give up on the problem.
The same problem with whatsapp audios.
Thank you.
Yes, even I am facing this issue. It sounds distorted, some kind of hardware malfunction.
