prevent notification ringtone during audio playing? - Captivate General

Most of the time I like having the notification ringtone ding when i get an email or text message. however, it is annyoing when listening to music because it completely stops the music, beeps, then it continues to play.
anyway to disable it during the music playing or have it do it "ontop" of the background audio?
i'd hate to have to editsettings and disable it everytime i decide to listen to a song or two. then do settings and enable when i'm done.
I get so many emails it may do it 3 or 4 times in each song.. so annoying!

using the application "tasker" you could probably make profile that sets your notification sounds to silent and vibrate while music is playing and then set the volume back up when you close the music app.

Mute SMS tones when playing music?

Just looking for an option, app, or widget that does this. I just want something that will auto-mute any incoming noise I receive and default to vibrate when listening to Pandora or using Doubletwist, and then unmute them when I've got music paused or stopped. So far I have found nothing that will do this.
Thanks.

Android - Calendar Notification Sound until Checked

Hello!
I was wondering if there is an app that would allow to play a notification sound until the notification is checked. I get a default, short sound for my calendar notifications which I often miss so I want something that plays a sound or repeats the notification sound until I check the event. It's for the HTC EVO 4G.
I've tried searching around and tried apps like "missed call" but I have not found a solution to works on the calendar.
The closest app I found is called "calendar snooze" but instead of playing the notification sound until I check it, it reminds me for every minute or so with maximum of 5 times (can be customized and more options are available in paid version). So wondering if there is something that just simply plays the sound until the calendar is viewed.
Thanks!

how to control the notification sound (or pause) during a movie?

Hi,
When I'm watching a movie (streaming or otherwise) or streaming music and I get an email...the TF mutes the sound of the movie or music and plays the notification sound.
Even if I turn the notification sound off...the music still pauses during the movie or music...
I can't find a setting for this...
You can disable auto synchronization of your mail in your Accounts and Sync settings, or you can just disable wifi altogether. You will always get notifications if auto synchronization is turned on, so the only way to ensure the system doesn't get bogged down with constant updates is to disable it.
Bring up the notification bar (tap the clock/wifi/battery icon)
Tap the settings icon (sliders right under the last number on the clock)
Turn notifications > off

[Workaround] Notifications interrupting media playback

I've been searching around the web and have not found an answer to this problem. Regardless of the phone being on silent, vibrate, or even do not disturb, text notifications still interrupt the music that is playing. It happens with Google Play Music, Pandora, and Spotify.
I downloaded a couple apps to manage media and notification volumes individually, but one didn't work at all, and the other simply muted the notification but the music still lowers for a second, as if the notification is still occuring.
Can anyone help me out? This is quite frustrating.
Please, and thank you for your time.
Update: I noticed this only occurs with a headset plugged in or connected via Bluetooth. When using the phone's speakers for music playback, notifications do not interrupt the music.
Workaround: I managed to find a slightly more bearable solution. Here is basically what I did.
1 - Download third party texting app for play store.
2 - Assign new text app as default.
3 - Go to Settings -> Apps, find stock messaging app, and disable all notification settings.
4 - Modify new text app notifications to vibrate only.
I don't know if some of these steps are excessive/unnecessary, but I'm tired of tinkering around so much, so I'm settling here. I hope this can help someone that finds themselves in the same situation. Again, I do not claim this to be the best solution; just slightly less bad.

No media/video sound after receiving a notification

For some reason, every time I receive a notification in a media-playing app (Spotify, Youtube, etc), I hear the notification sound, which then mutes my media entirely. Even though the video is still playing in the background, there is no sound.
Clicking the volume buttons doesn't bring the volume back, and I have to either exit out of the video and wait several seconds, or exit out of the app and replay the media for it to make sound again.
Everytime I get a notification I hear the sound in the background but it fades out and becomes silent again.
I haven't found anyone encountering this issue, and I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas? I've done everything short of a factory reset, but I think I might have to do that soon.
Update: If I put the notification sound on silent or vibrate, the problem disappears.
