After all this time I am still struggling with understanding the interaction that seems to exist between the volume settings. There is the "media" volume and the "notifications" volume. Then there is the "main" volume which seems to totally correspond to the media volume.
Sometimes I can't hear incoming notifications, even phone calls. I check the notification setting and it's ok, at least 50% like I usually have it. But my main volume has been lowered because I previously played a video or music and lowered the media volume. It seems like that lowers the main volume, which in turn affects the notification volume! This doesn't make sense to me. If every time I play music quietly it leaves my notifications so quiet I can't hear them, that's a problem. Can anyone clarify this? Is it something just on my particular OS version?
I would love to see volume settings uncoupled, and have more of them. I like phone calls to be fairly loud, while sms and other messaging apps audible but quiet. I want to be able to adjust Media volume without it affecting anything else! I like the keyboard click sound, but I'd like to set that volume independent of all other settings so it stays consistent.
Have any of these things changed on 10.2.1? I haven't read anything that indicates such... anyone else have these issues? it's one of the only annoying aspects of what I consider a great phone!

Keyboard, media, and notifications volumes are independently adjustable. But that's where it ends - notifications are a blanket adjustment, there is no fine tuning per app. Referring to volume only.
