Why does the volume button only adjust the ringtone volume and nothing else? (ex. notification volume, sms text volume, email notification volume...)

When I put the ringer to silent, I want all the sounds to be silent. Am I missing something with the ICS update? I never had this issue back on gingerbread.
 
To disable all sounds do the following:

Hold down the power button. Choose silent mode. Turn that on. All sounds except alarms will be disabled. The up and down button now just controls the ringtone volume. If you want to adjust other volume settings do this:

At the home screen choose menu- settings. Sound-volume. Choose your settings there.

I use the app quick settings. Much faster.
