mate, I am fully aware I can do that, but then I am say at work, where it gets loud at times, and therefore wish to have the ringer and notifications call a bit louder than at home. Not only do I have to do that with two different settings, I can't even achieve that using volume buttons and sound panel, but rather have to specifically go to Settings>Sound each time. it's fucking regressive.
And I know some people prefer to have the ringer call loudly and notifications notify silently, but the point is this used to be customisable! It was a switch between linked volume or separate and it worked fine for years. Why enshittify a perfectly well working thing?!
I've been using tasker to manage my ringer profiles for so long I didn't even realize this. When at work (within radius) and connected to the office WiFi the ringer is set to 1 out of 7 level. When out in the manufacturing facility it's disconnected from WiFi and I'm still inside the radius so the ringer goes to 7 out of 7 level. Works like a charm!
Well yeah, "Rules" does this as well, but this only works in repeatable scenario
that's really weird, it's in the little sound panel for me
I'm using a Pixel, maybe your manufacturer implemented it wrong for some reason
I only have Media (shows by default), Ring and Alarm (after expanding) in there. But then again, I'm running a custom rom, based on LineageOS, based on AOSP
oh, didn't know Lineage got to 14 yet from what I remember Lineage has its own custom sound panel that's different from the little bottom popup on Pixel you could submit a bug report for it here
Afaik Lineage supports setting profiles, like on really old phones there was a work profile, street profile and whatever to change the volume according to that. Did you try that out?
I know about it but this doesn't really fix the issue because, yet again, that's merely a solution for a repeatable scenario
