Revision history [back]

First of all: this question might seem like a duplicate of a similarly named question, but as far as the problem description seems to go, this issue seems different, and as for the solution - that's not working for me.

So then...

I'm running version 1.0.8 of Sailfish OS, so all android apps have their own active covers. I'm using a messaging app (threema) which works fine in general. When the app is in foreground (fullscreen mode) and the screen is on, all notification sounds play nicely. As soon as the app is "backgrounded" or the screen goes off, the sounds seems to be muted. I still receive notifications over the notification view (slide up from the bottom), but there are no sounds playing. So I'm regularly missing IMs, except if I check every n seconds... The problem is not solved by installing any ringtone apps (tried several) and selecting a different notification tone than "default" (which is the current setting).

This issue exists since 1.0.6 (=from the first moment I got my phone), so basically android notification sounds never worked. Any suggestions why this happens?

Thanks in advance.
