Quiet alarm while playing videos

I fall asleep watching Facebook videos, so they just continue to play all night long and into the morning. When my alarm goes off it makes one loud noise then goes very very low making me sleep in. How can I make sure my alarm will over power the Facebook videos …?

Sleep schedule alarm goes off WHEN SKIPPED 1/10 times that I skip my sleep schedule alarm from my Lock Screen, it still goes off. Every time this happens the little icon will say “no alarm” but it still activates. I need background noise to fall asleep, so every time I skip my alarm I will have the audio player also active at the bottom of my lock screen. Could this issue be a bug caused by this? I’ve seen this question asked but the response they received was a link to a setup guide for the sleep schedule. To avoid this non-answer; SLEEP SCHEDULE SKIPPED BUT SLEEP SCHEDULE ALARM STILL GO WEE-WOO

Alarms don’t go off and stop notifications if something (YouTube, Podcasts, Music) is playing. I fall asleep to YouTube, Podcasts, or Music. When my alarms go off, they don’t make noise and freeze at the top of my screen, which stops all notifications from going off. Whatever I was listening to continues, but the alarm is silent and doesn’t even go into snooze mode; it just stays there. This leads to me never waking up. In this example image, the alarm stayed at the top of my screen and is not making any noise. YouTube is still playing. If I were asleep, it would just stay there and stop any other alarms from going off and any notifications from coming through, so when I eventually would wake up, I get all of the notifications from when I was supposed to wake up to when I actually did. I thought the problem was YouTube, but this happens with the Podcasts app too, even if the podcast isn’t playing anymore. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a way to stop it?

Alarm stops background sounds why do my background sounds stop working when alarm goes off? it’s super annoying, especially if I choose to hit the snooze button because I have to reset the sounds to start again. is there anyway to make sure they’re not fully disrupted just because the alarm goes off?
