No voicemail notifications

Its probably right in front of me but I'm new to nexus phones. Can't seem to find where to turn on voicemail notifications. I dont ever know if I have a voicemail to check.

Generally automatic. Who is your carrier?

Google Voice is one my favorite appps, maybe even #1.

I got it figured out now. Thanks.
It helps if I set it up, I guess. Didn't realize my old voicemail didn't carry over. So I got it all set up.

Wanna share how you get this working other than to say you got it working?

I'm with Virgin Mobile here in Canada and am having the same issue. It shows a missed call but doesn't show that they left a voicemail. I just called Virgin and they said that my voicemail is set up correctly and I should be receiving notifications automatically.

When I swipe down I see "SO-N-SO Missed Call - Call Back or Message" as options but Message brings me to Hangouts there is ZERO notification that they left a message even when they did.

Ideas?
