Just wondering if anyone else is having issues with notifications not making a sound even tough all settings are turned on for alert and vibrate. It stopped working about a month ago and Samsung can't figure out why it is not working.

Galaxy SHi DDowney,
We are sorry to hear that the notification sound issues can be frustrating, especially when you've checked all the settings and they seem to be configured correctly. Here are some steps to troubleshoot and resolve the issue.
- Ensure notification volume is up (Settings > Sounds and Vibration > Volume).
- Disable Do Not Disturb or check its exceptions.
- Check app-specific notification sounds (Settings > Notifications > [App Name]).
- Test in Safe Mode (hold Power Off > Safe Mode) to rule out third-party apps.
Thank you.

I did all of that including a factory reset and nothing fixed it. Took it to an authorized Samsung repair place. They said that they couldn't do anything to repair it as it is a Samsung issue and for Samsung to replace the phone. I called Samsung and a manager was suppose to call me back 3 days ago and I still haven't heard from him. The phone is less than 6 months old and Samsung not wanting to help.

I had my phone hooked up to my Bluetooth speaker and the notifications come through that but as soon as it is disconnected I can't hear notifications. Does anyone know where I would look for a setting that has been changed or turned on. I habe tried everything
