Google Messages Notifications won't vibrate nor display blink light

[pbike908]

Ever since I updated to Android Pie, I have been unable to get my phone to vibrate when I receive a text message. I have Google Messages set as default. I have tried a FDR. I have been through every setting imaginable. It's driving me batty...

It also won't display the blink light anymore -- which I don't care about as much as vibrate...

Any ideas suggestions???
