Why does turning off SOUND not turn off ALL sound?

[mustang7757]

I stil get sound from media sources like games or youtube when it's on mute. The sound/vibrate/mute toggle is just for system sound, notifications and calls.

It is a little confusing how it's set up... l

How about the slider in my earlier screenshot for notification and system?

They are both at the minimum levels while on mute. But if you look at that screenshot, Media is not, so your phone will output volume from media sources too.

Thanks Fuzzy, I will use the DND and see if that is better. I appreciate this forum, as you cannot get much info anywhere else. Thanks.

Its strange i never get any other notification or sounds in mute and with slider up for Media thats only for YouTube etc.
