Hmmm. Good question. I just tried this with my phone and got the same results. I'm going to play around with some of the settings and i'll post if i come up with anything. Anyone else have any ideas?
Just make custom sound profile where everything is set to vibrate in conjunction with a silenced ring. Use this custom profile instead of the native one and you will be covered until the bug is fixed.
