I did a quick search but didn't find exactly what I was looking for so thought I'd ask here.
I am currently running the stock rom with gravity box and franco kernel (along with light flow) and have noticed that my notifications are kind of wonky.
First, when you turn the volume up and down using the buttons on the side is there a lag of about half a second between when the volume slider moves and the notification sound plays? (For instance, if you go from 0 volume to full volume the slider will hit the top about half a second before the sound comes out of the speaker)?
Second, when receiving notifications there seems to be a delay in the audio sometimes. When receiving messages back to back sometimes the notification doesn't even play at all the second time around or plays and cuts off halfway through the sound. Does anyone else have an issue similar to this?
I decided to deal with it until the next new android version is dropped and then was going to see if doing a factory reset fixed the issue but thought I'd ask in here to see if anyone knew what the root cause might be.
Thanks.
The one I notice most that seems odd is hitting the power button. The screen collapses to the line, goes totally blank, then it seems like someone says "Oh!, I was supposed to play the turn off sound - I'll do that now".

I have a similar set up minus light flow. I get distorted/ delayed notifications. the phone vibrates first, but then a second or two later I get notification (sometimes, sometimes no notification). Often the notifications are distorted.

Yes! Distorted is the word I was looking for. I'm not sure why this is causing it and I wanted to see whether or not other people were having this issue as well.

I don't have a sound play when I turn off my screen so I wouldn't know whether or not I have that issue. The notification issue is quite annoying though as it causes me to miss notifications.

I've noticed that, for some reason, during the day my notifications won't sound. The phone will vibrate but I have missed calls, SMS, emails, etc. because of this. The phone is DEFINITELY on loud and I am NOT changing the volume in pocket (it happens with or without case). Everytime it happens, I checked my volume and it is all the way up.
Any ideas? PS - happens on any ROM

I had a similar issue that turned out to be due to my own mis-setting of CyanogenMod's quiet hours <.< 12PM is different than 12AM.
In your case it sounds like there is a setting somewhere that is preventing there from being a notification sound. Do you use stock messaging and gmail? Go into the settings for those applications (stock or non) and check to make sure its set correctly. Has this always been true? Have you tried doing a full factory reset? It sucks but its the best way to gauge whether or not you are experiencing a setting issue or if its really a hardware issue. Do your calls ring?

I appreciate the help; I'll check quiet hours. As I stated, calls have the same problem. Notifications are definitely properly configured in their respective apps because I get the sounds sometimes.

In your Sound -> Volume Make sur ethe "Use incoming call volume for notificatons" radio is ticked. Turn ringer all the way up and see if you can hear your notifications.
My phone has started dropping the volume to lowest audible setting (not completely silent, 1/7) on its own lately. It's quite annoying. It doesn't even happen due to it being in my pocket and triggering the buttons accidentally. I've been chatting on gtalk for the past few hours, been keeping it out of reach of any pockets and it's happened twice.
It's an unlocked, unrooted One S from Germany and I don't have any volume control apps on it.
Any ideas what could be causing it?
EDIT:
Looks like it's an issue with gtalk, not the phone itself:

Hey guys,
a relevant discussion with no solution is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/call-volume-reset-call-t2900082
Each time I make a call, or receive one, the phone call volume is set just a tiny bit above zero, so I can hear nothing and I have to crank it up. I have to do this each time and I still did not get into the habit of doing it (partially cause I do not subconsciously want to do it forever), so the frist few seconds are always just awkward. It has nothing to do with the mixer_paths.xml, cause I have a "90" settings (by default) set there, so it must be something else.
I know of no setting that would make a default in-call volume globally for a phone. This happens in normal calls, facebook messenger calls.. I think I noticed this happening first time with facebook in-call volume.
Is there anything to be done?
Hello,
I have exactly the opposite problem. Did you solve?
Did anyone find a solution or got this solved?? I have the same problem
I am on CM11 44s, I set the volume to 2 notches and it resets back to full for the next call. The setting is not getting saved or something.
This problem has cropped up a couple of days back, previously it was working fine.
Anyone having any idea?
I stopped having this problem, after I upgraded to Android 6.0.1. However, in call volume dropped even when it is maxed out, which is kind of worse situation actually.
Pixel 2 XL Issues Dialer extremely slow & Deafening notification beeps during calls
Hi all,
I had a quick search on the forums but couldn't find anything related to this. I'm unsure if it's a problem with just the Pixel 2 XL or Android. I've installed all OTA updates and the phone is running 8.1.0. It had both of these errors prior to updating. I have also replaced the entire handset and tested again. Still occurring. I have a Pixel 2 also, which does NOT experience these issues. I'm also running stock, no root/roms. *edit* I went through Google support for both issues, they couldn't find any solutions. They suggested a factory reset and then replaced the handset.
The dialer:
Intermittent problem. Basically when you open the dialer or a contact and initiate a call, the app often freezes for an indeterminate amount of time. It could be 10 seconds it could be over a minute. Eventually it will move to the "call" screen and then freezes/lags again. Once more this can be any length of time up to a minute or more. All other apps work perfectly fine during this process. Eventually the call initiates and you can hear it ring, once in call everything behaves normally.
The notifications:
This one is simple. During a call receiving an SMS or other notification results in an electronic beep sound which plays at full volume. It does the same thing after the call ends. I'm not sure if it's using call or external speakers as the volume is so damn loud it doesn't matter. It legitimately causes me to throw the phone away from my ear and I cannot hear anything besides buzzing for 20 minutes. It actually hurts.
Nothing I do has stopped this except to turn on DND before I make or receive a call, which is useless. I read a few other threads about this being a new feature in 8.1.0 and "intentional". However I think those are referring to the call end beep, or notifications during a call that make the designated notification sound, not a deafening beep. The threads I read suggested removing third party apps and phone permissions, I used a brand new handset and the beeps still happened.
Please does anyone have a suggestion? I'll try anything at this point.

If you don't have issues with the Pixel 2 and do have issues with the Pixel 2XL, why don't you ask in the Pixel 2XL forum?

Hey, did you get any answers on this,. I'm having the same frustrating issue.
I just started to have this problem a few days out of nowhere. Some on Reddit are having issues too.
https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixel/comments/80qh32/pixel_2_xl_dialer_problems/
I found that plugging the phone into charge or computer fixes the issues for a little bit...
Had similar issues with my Verizon Pixel 2. After some searching, I restarted the phone in safe mode and the problem went away, meaning it's a non-stock app interfering with the phone app. I restarted in 'normal' mode, uninstalled Facebook (it's always f'ing Facebook), and have had zero issues since.

Thanks for the fix! Phone.app was killing me!
Everytime I receive a call using either Instagram or Whatsapp my notifications and phone sounds go haywire after. Immediately after if I use the volume buttons on the side they control the audio for ringtone but not volume for anything else. All sounds are muffled and low or don't ring or make any sound at all. The only option is to restart the phone. So now I'm restarting the phone several times a day.
I've checked zen mode, its off. I've checked adaptive battery, that's not it. I've hard reset the phone 4 times and eventually loaded apps one by one until I found it to be happened with Whatsapp and Instagram. I'm not using the beta of either app.
I've had this issue from day one with this phone. I thought it was the phone, had it replaced within a week of getting it from TMO and its still continuing. This is strange, especially coming from a 6T. I'm at my wits end and ready to get rid of this thing. Anyone else come across this?
