I am getting this issue to, but it is intermittent. I am also having an issue with different ring tones playing. Every call rings a different ring tone, even from the same person. It is very strange!

just wondering are you in a text message when it does this? I noticed that it doesn't tell me I have a new text message from the same person if I am on the thread screen of their text messages... if that makes sense

If you are in the conversation screen with "sammy" it wont notify you unless you back out of it and you're in a different area, window.

It makes sense to me why they do it.
I don't like that feature though.

Phone: Samsung Galaxy Nexus               Tablet: Google Nexus 7
ROM: PURITY JDQ39                         ROM: PURITY JDQ39
Kernel: AK Kernel Diamond ed.             Kernel: M-Kernel
Baseband: I925OUGLH1                      Bootloader: v4.18
Recovery: TWRP v2.4.3.0                   Recovery: TWRP v2.4.3.0

Yea thats what I was trying to say LOL... I agree I wish we could disable the feature... but then again just turning on the screen seems to work now that the app is out.

I recieved two OTA updates, the first one fixed this issue for me.
The noise goes off, but the notification clears and the light doesn't blink still. Oh well, it's progress at least.
