Ambiance settings don't override standard alarm sound settings

I have experimented a bit with the sound settings to learn how they work and which does what. I have found out that the settings of the ambience that is both stared and in use overrides the standard sound settings. This is true for all but the alarms. Whatever ambience you use the standard sound settings for the alarms will be used and it will ignore any overrides you have set in your current ambiance.


How to reproduce:

  1. Create an ambiance or use a user created one.
    1. Go into the ambiance alarm sound and change it to something else.
    2. Or turn of alarm sound in the ambience alarm sound menu.
  2. Set an alarm or timer.
  3. When the alarm or timer alarms it will still be using the alarm sound set in standard sound settings.

Edit: As I can't reproduce this problem after the latest system upgrade I'll be closing this problem.
