    Diferent sound levels between ringtone and notifications no more possible. Any way round it?

    Since the OS update, there is no option any more to have separate levels of sound between the two. So if I want to have the notifications louder than the ringtone I cannot any more. Any idea of how this can be bypassed? Thanks!
