android notification sound through headphones when phone is muted

No.777960 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Whenever I listen to music through regular, wired headphones and have my phone set to "Vibrate" I don't hear any notification sounds except for the phone calls.
The exact steps would be
1. Set the phone to Vibrate
2. Start playing music through headphones
3. Receive a notification
4. The phone vibrates, and there is no sound through headphones
This is happening on android 8 running on an A3 2017
I find it extremely annoying, as this wasn't happening after using the phone for 2 years, no roots, no modifications or anything else. This shit started after the update to 8.0, and I didn't experience anything similar on earlier droids, BBOS10, iOS or Windows Phone.
I've found some threads on google's issue tracker but it seems that other users' isuse was that the sound was played through the speaker instead through the headphones (the thread was from 2010).
Is there any way to make the phone play the notification sound through headphones while the phone is set to Vibrate/Silent? I've read that it'd be possible to do this via tasker, but I'm asking whether there is something in the settings that I omitted or anything else.
