Silent notification when using channel: alarm_stream on Samsung devices

See original GitHub issue

Home Assistant Android version: 3.0.0-full Android version: 10 Phone model: Samsung Galaxy S20 Home Assistant version: 0.116.2 Last working Home Assistant release (if known):

Description of problem: I Try to use the alarm_stream in a notification. I want to use Home Assistant to find my phone if i loose it. It uses the alarm sound but if the phone is in silent mode it receives the notification silent. Did I misunderstood the docs?

   action:
     - service: notify.mobile_app_m***
       data:
         title: "Title"
         message: "Message here"
         data:
           ttl: 0
           priority: high
           channel: alarm_stream

Using this works if the phone is in slient mode

   action:
     - service: notify.mobile_app_m***
       data:
         title: "Find me. RRRRRRRRRRRR. TTTTTTTTTT. Here I am!"
         message: TTS
         data:
           ttl: 0
           priority: high
           channel: alarm_stream_max

Re-opening as there is one thing to try that I found in a stack overflow post. It did not specifically call out Samsung but it did mention some additional alarm attributes that continue to work on my device so hopefully this is what other manufacturers are expecting. No promises so if you are able to get ADB logs would be good to get them too.

My other suspicion is that its possible that samsung is just returning a blank URI for the alarm however I would expect to see a crash report if that were the case.

@dshokouhi I am using Android Studio (verbose mode, no filters). If the app is in background there is no trace of similar strings in my logs, the notification is shown correctly, but without sound.

If the app is in foreground, the notification message is empty (there is just the icon without text, is it another bug?) and still no sound. In this case, the log is:

Edit: it looks like there is no data payload in the notification; looking at https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/android/receive#handling_messages, in background the notification is delivered directly to the device’s system tray because there is no payload, and in foreground the log show empty payload.
