Question Notifications don't play through headset????

Is it just me, or notifications don't play through the headset?
When I play Pandora radio via headphones and an email arrives the music pauses, as usual, and...notification sound only comes through the speaker..
Can someone confirm this?

Thanks.

I think I have noticed the same thing, though I don't remember it playing over the phone speaker?

I could've sworn I saw a setting that let you choose whether a notification was sent through the headset or speaker...But I just went hunting through all the settings and can't find it.

Mine works too. I use a regular JVC in-ear headsets to listen to music, and I can hear phone calls ringing, as well as message notifications coming in. Nothing seems any different than my other android phone. It might be a setting that u accidentally changed maybe?

Well obviously it has something to do with the headset itself. Mine is Skullcandy FIX and it works dandy (other then inline vol up/down buttons) on Skyrocket and Atrix 4g, but on Nitro not only it doesn't get notifications through it, the mic doesn't work either!
I also have some brand I don't remember, from RadioShack store - no notifications, but at least mic works.
