Today I overslept because my alarm didn't go off! Well, technically it did trigger as I could see the display with the pulleys to either disable it or set it to snooze. But the alarm was silent, no alarm tone was played. To summarize the facts:

  • alarm shows on display, but no sound is played
  • it was no issue with sound in general as the media player worked.
  • trying to set up a new alarm showed the same issue: alarm triggers but no sound
  • while opening the clock app (to set up the new test alarm) I got a lot of "app not responding" notifications. Something got stuck there somewhere ...
  • rebooting solved the issue (for now)
  • other than upgrading to 2.1.4.14 about 2 weeks ago I did not change anything. Also, I could already use the alarm since the upgrade.
  • device: Jolla C

The issue is particularly nasty if you rely on it! But a muted alarm is everything else but reliable! Does anyone know more?

Had something strange issue with clock on SailfishX since last update too. I have two alarms, one at 6:10, another at 6:20. Sometimes snoozing the 6:10 alarm two times, disables both alarms unwanted. Don't know how this belongs to your issue, but indeed some strange things going on with clock since 2.1.4.14!

Same here! I won't use the alarm anymore because I can not trust its reliability... Experienced this issue around five times now.

Had this several times on Xperia X, today again (2.2.0.29). Several times on JP1 too, on all OS versions it had.

Xperia X, 2.2.0.29, symptoms as described elsewhere, incomming call no sound, no vibration, media player has sound, pacmd list-sinks shows sink #2 (sink.deep_buffer) state as SUSPENDED, where as it is RUNNING when sound is ok. Didn't help: systemctl restart ofono, systemctl --user restart pulseaudio.service (w+wo rm -rf /home/nemo/.config/pulse), switch ambiences.

See silent-alarm. systemctl --user restart ngfd did the trick today...
