[Q] All notifications use default notification sound

I recently decided that I'd like different sounds for my various app notifications, but found that regardless as to what I set them to, they always use the default notification sound. To clarify, my apps ( gmail, twitter, facebook, etc ) all allow me to change their sounds and the settings stay put, they just simply don't use the selected sound, but rather player the default instead.
I've tried using apps that help with setting sounds, didn't help. I tried only using default system sounds vs the ones I've added via Zedge, didn't matter. I've been searching on XDA and Google, but no luck. I'm currently running v3 of the Breakneck rom on an LG Vortex and would much appreciate any help.
Update
I flashed my phone to v4 of the breakneck rom this morning, so took the opportunity to see which app(s) was causing the problem. The fresh rom prior to installing any new apps does work with a default system wide sound and different individual app sounds. I didn't encounter the problem I mentioned above until I used Zedge to set my notification sound to one of the ones that I had downloaded through it. If I uninstall Zedge and go back to using default system sounds, they work again properly. But if I use one of the downloaded sound files, even with Zedge still uninstalled, it no longer allows individual apps to have their own sounds. I even tried converting the sound files over to OGG and moving them to the system notification folder, no dice. Any ideas?
If this problem still exist in the V2.4 of the Zedge app please let us know by using "feedback" in the app.
Then we will let one of our developers to take a look at it.
(I'm a Community Manager in Zedge by the way)
Thanks!
Thank you for the reply, but I'm not 100% sure that it's Zedge's fault. A friend of mine has the same phone and is running a stock rom AND is having no trouble with his Zedge sounds. I however, am having trouble with Zedge on my custom rommed phone. I've also sent a tweet over to the rom developer to see if he'd check things on his end.
Also, I am already running v.2.4.

[Q] SOUND PROFILES (sms / email alerts)

Hi Guys,
First post, a friend at work referred me here, thus far i've found the forums very useful.
One thing i cant find an answer for through xda or google is the ability to distinguish notification alerts.
Relevant to my query, I am using;
> HTC One XL (Telstra) Unlocked & rooted, STOCK ROM.
- Apex Pro Launcher
- Combination of XD widgets & Android Pro Widgets.
- Quick Profiles Pro
Whilst quick profiles pro really does the job i want it to do, i need to be able to identify different alerts;
- Email / Gmail
- SMS
Facebook would also be nice to set apart, but if it hasnt been thought of yet, the ability to differentiate between an sms alert tone and an email alert tone seems as though it should be a fairly remedial task, im wondering why in finding it so hard to find something to do this?

In settings go to sounds, then notification and change the sound. This will be for emails. Open the sms app and open settings. Go to notification. This will be your sms sound.

Lol i cant beleive it was that simple, thanks so much.
On the topic, im not a fan of my tones list being cluttered up with stock tones i'll never use.
I have mounted R/W in root explorer to move the default tones to my sd card and back them up on my pc.
In their place i have loaded my custom mp3s, but when i try to assign them they do not appear;
- system/media/audio/notifications
- system/media/audio/ringtones
All threads i have viewed say to load customs on sdcard to;
- sdcard/media/audio/notifications
- sdcard/media/audioringtones
Neither ringtones or notifications load from this location.
I moved my ringtones back to;
- sdcard/ringtones
They appear in my list.
I tried this with notification tones;
- sdcard/notifications
They still dont appear when i try to assign them.
Same phone, unlocked & rooted HTC One XL Stock ROM Telstra.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Sorted.
The files werent visible thru notifications settings when i put them there.
When i had a look again, they were mysteriously there.
I notice this happens when i sync my music for music player.
My playlists are empty for a number of hours before eventually just appearing.
Why is that?

[Q] CM 10 and repeated ringtone titles?

Hi guys. I recently flashed my LG G2X (LGP999) from Wind's Froyo (2.2) to CM 10 using ClockworkMod and ROM Manager. Everything was going great till I noticed something odd. All of the default ringtones in this version of CyanogenMod, as well as my custom ringtones, are repeated in the ringtone menu. The same thing is happening with notification ringtones. Since I'm a new user, I can't post images from external links, so please bear with me.
Ringtones:

Notifications:
imgur.com/MEv3P
And I have another problem. Some of the default system sounds show up in Apollo, and I can't delete them from the app. Is there any way to remove stuff like camera_click.ogg from Apollo? On Wind's proprietary OS I was able to delete stuff from the Music app...

The default ringtones and notifications don't show up in the media or audio folders, and I tried deleting them from the audio folder via ASTRO File Manager but they're still in the ringtones menu... what gives? Why can't I delete them?
Another mini problem: the screen flickers a lot when I go into the gallery to view pictures, but other than that everything has been much smoother and better than 2.2.
If you could tell me how to delete the default ringtones and notifications (because I don't use them), as well as how to remove the default system sounds from Apollo, I'd be very grateful. Thank you.
I have the same problem. But mine is in CM9 and CM10

It happens to me too, try move the ringtones to internal, if it still occurs then default ringtones are the last resort.
Well you can always try copying the ringtones you want to use to the system, but i have not tested it
