Help Calendar events overriding alarm

I have an odd issue;

The reminder screens that come up for events in the calendar app over-ride alarms set in the clock app. The reminder screens do not auto-dismiss, and appear silently. If an alarm is set to go off, and the reminder screen is currently up; the alarm will go off silently also.

Alarms do not go off silently if there is no event reminder screen up.

I can not find a way to stop this from happening. People are able to send appointment requests to my calendar, which even when not accepted, and with my default reminders set to off, will appear in my calendar with reminder times. I have over-slept many a time due to this.

I have no clue, but I would check calendar settings, alarm clock settings. Also, what have you installed recently? Uninstall it and see if that helps. Also, in lieu of any fix? Do a factory data reset.

If you're using the stock Samsung Calendar app try Google Calendar instead. Also, in Google Calendar settings uncheck add declined events. That should stop events you haven't accepted from showing up. That's all I can come up with. No idea why this problem would happen.
