Just wondering if anyone has had problems with the native alarm not going off.

I have trouble with any "sound event" triggering when "Settlers of Catan" is in active memory. That manifests itself as alarms not going off, or as voice navigation being mute. (or as music not playing, but I almost never play music, I only discovered that by testing.) If I swipe "Settlers" out of the active pp list, sound works properly. (In version 2.4 the gadget often crashed if an alarm tried to trigger when "Settlers" was up, and I had to reboot, so this is a big improvement.)

I can get around the problem of accidentally missing an alarm by setting all my alarms to include vibrate, as well as sound. Vibrate works fine. I could also stop playing "Settlers", of course, but I enjoy the game.

I use Timely, have ever since Google bought them. I like the interface & that it sync's across all your devices. Never had any issues with it on any of my devices.

Stock and no issues. This includes OG Droid, Droid 2 Global, and Droid 4 along with my X.
 
I use the stock alarm and have no issues, but I'm on AT&T so I still have 4.4. Could this maybe be more of a 4.4.2 issue? Regardless, I really depend on the alarm, so I might check out Timely anyway.

Stock... 4.4.2. 2 alarms set and neither one alarmed. First time though. No new apps downloaded.
