How do I set a notification to go into priority mode (Lollipop)?

AC Question

Lollipop interuptions confusion!

Ok, so I understand the premise of this and if I could figure it out, I'd really appreciate the new feature. So here is my issue. I have it set for priority. I have it set to allow messages from only starred contacts. I have everyday set and the start at 10pm, end at 7am.

At 1PM I get a text from a starred contact. I am in vibrate, priority mode. I get no notification. I remove the priority and go to just vibrate and notification comes through. Am I misunderstanding how this is supposed to work?

I am using go sms pro, and not the stock messaging app. I have set it in applications to allow it to send in prority mode. So confused.
