Is it common for the storm to not always alert you with a tone? I have my sounds set to normal and times ill get an audible tone for a new msg or email along with red flashing indicator, other times no sound is played just flashing red light. Is this normal with the storm? Or something wrong with my storm?

Active use of screen, e.g. typing > no audible alerts.

I added BerryBuzz to expand the notification capabilities. Works great for me ... consistent, reliable tones and LED blinking.
