Step-by-Step Fix

1

Check Focus Mode

Ensure "Do Not Disturb" or "Focus" is turned OFF.

2

Check App Sound Settings

Some apps have their own internal mute toggle separate from the system.

3

Verify Volume Mixer

On PC, ensure "System Sounds" is not muted in the volume mixer.

When to See a Technician

Bluetooth headphones connected in another room can "steal" your notification sounds.
