Help How to separate ringtone and notification volume? (Marshmallow)

[CoachJ]

I've had the same problem driving me crazy for at least six months. I finally held down on the notification slider door a few seconds and I was able to move it independently from the ring volume. Maybe a glitch, but I'm leaving them where they are now. But try holding down on one of the sliders.

The only work around that works that I found was Volume Butler. Here are the instructions:https://www.guidingtech.com/separate-ringtone-notification-volume-android/

That did not work for me.

FWIW ... I am almost anal about volume controls ... if someone comes up with a new observation I investigate. As I mentioned ... it is I think the most complex and misunderstood aspect of Android and it gets smashed every time there is a new major release.
