Notifications playing through loud speaker while headphone is plugged in - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I just switched from my Nexus 5 to S6 Edge. I noticed one VERY annoying thing: if I'm not on silent or vibrate mode while listening to music (I use PowerAmp) through headphone, both music and notification sound will be redirected to loudspeaker every time a notification comes. Everybody around me can hear the music I'm listening to + the notification and the speaker on S6 is pretty damn loud.
This gets even more annoying when I'm chatting with friends as notification sound will be played every few seconds. I had to mute notification sound. I did some research and most threads here on XDA said it's an Android bug, but I don't think so. My Nexus 5 never had this problem on 4.4, 5.0 or 5.1. Please help!

There's nothing you can do. Silence your phone.

Seriously? That would be damn annoying bug

[q] Get ringtones & notification through speaker even with earphones plugged on ICS.
Is there any way to get ringtones and notifications through both earphones and speaker. Or at least through speaker while the earphones are plugged. I tend to sleep with my earphones plugged in so if I get a important call before I wake up or if it's a wake up call. There was this feature on Cyanogenemod 7 but not on AKOP or something like that.
Thanks you.

Is my speaker broken???

Every time I play a sound (example: keyboard press) my speaker makes a slight hiss for a few seconds after (I could only hear it when I put my ear up close)... is my speaker broken??? I think it started when my phone accidentally played nyan cat at the loudest level (really loud)
And also sometimes when I play YouTube videos at the 0 volume I could hear a buzzing noise (goes away when I pause)

On keyboard press you have "sound on keypress" activated, look in keyboard settings.
The fact that is just a hissing sound is because is a quiet audio file, like you would record a mute person, the hissing is some software thing that makes a background noise whenever an audio file is played/called by an action,
be it an empty audio, a silent part on a track..etc, is always present but you can-t always hear it because of the song, call...etc
Is bugging me wen in call and the person i'm talking to is silent,
because i have in-call volume at max, it depends on the drivers of each rom,
some don't have it.

[Q] Notifications when listening to music

Hi, when i am listening to music on my head phones and a text comes through it defaults to this loud beeping noise. If i play around with the volume/sounds long enough it will change to the notification sound that i originaly set, and the volume is much lower. The second i unplug my head phones and plug them back in the default loud beeping notification is present.
Is there sonething that i am missing? When listening to music on my headphones I just want the notification noise to be the the sound i initially chose (when my headphones are unplugged) and not the default beeping noise.
I think this is so that it's easier to hear? I'm not sure. I like the beeping noise actually.
Interestingly, in Settings > Message, you'll find the Tone and Vibrate options disabled...

fb messenger problem

hey lads, new galaxy alpha owner right here , have a problem with messenger app
.i cant turn off the in-app sounds
even though i turn them off in the settings they still are there
they are always at max sound, they are too loud, once i get a message i hear the loudest beep sound
even if i change the notification sounds to very low sound ,the fb messenger sounds are the same(too loud) all of this while in other apps the sound is normal and even in the keyboard the sound is normal
anyone else has the same problem with the same app?
overall i am too excited with the phone ,love it already
edit: ok figured it out after some testing, it seems the app's sounds change volume with the ringtone volume controller and not with the notification volume controller, thats pretty dumb.... cause i want the ringtone to be loud but i dont want the notifications to sound too loud... if anyone has any solution plz write it ,thanks

LG V10 Notifications

Hello,
On my V10 for some reason I cannot hear any notification sound through the headphones while listening to music like I have been able to with other LG and Samsung phones.
Samsung pauses the music so you can hear the notification sound. LG's, you can hear it right over the music and with vibration. With the V10 I can't hear anything but I can feel the vibration while the phone is in my pocket. But sometimes I can't feel the vibration depending on what i am doing. How can I get the notification sound to come through the headphones while music is playing?
All sound volumes are turned up high. I get the same results with the stock message app and message+.
Thanks.
