I use Alarm Clock Xtreme and I'm not having any issues.

no issue with 3p alarm. I use alarm clock plus.

Yes, I am having a similar problem on my Nexus 6P with Alarm Clock Extreme Free. This app worked fine on my Nexus 7 2013.

Omg.. Yes same problem here. I got my nexus this pass Monday and was late for twice because my alarm didn't go off until I picked up the phone or woke it up...
Alarm clock extreme paid app..

Same kind of problem here. Ended up creating an alarm in the stock clock app. After that, both alarms went off. I've left it like this cause I already was late for work 3 days last week.

Seems like an app issue. Have you guys reached out to the developer?

i have sent them a bug, got the canned response.
this is a real annoyance because i need a math problem to wake up.

I hear ya! However, I've switched back to the alarm in the stock Android Clock app, which works fine, and I'm now using an old-school clock radio as a backup. This double-pronged strategy seems to work fine for me for the time being, until the developers of Alarm Clock Xtreme address the problem with using their app on the Nexus 6P.
