Phone will not notify me of anything until I unlock the phone.

I searched this forum and Reddit and can't find help. I'm incredibly frustrated after a year of owning this phone. When my screen is locked, the ONLY notification I will receive is a text from the Samsung App. I use Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Outlook, etc. If I have a new notification from these apps, the phone will not notify me if the phone is locked. Every so often, I will pick up my phone, unlock it and then I get a BARRAGE of notifications from all these apps. Why is it doing this? 

Running Android 13

Lock Screen Always On Display is = ON

Lock Screen Notifications is = ON with "Show Content"

There is a setting on my Samsung Watch that magically switched to "Mute notification on phone". As soon as I turned that off, I started getting the notification on my phone when it was locked...
I went to the Samsung folder on my phone
Selected the Wearable App "Wear"
Watch settings > Notifications > Mute notifications on phone (slide off)

Yup. I got my S25 and it's still doing the same thing.  I made a note of all the APPs that do this and I set them to never sleep, and it's still doing it. No solution so far.

I did. This has been happening year before I got my watch. The watch is not my issue unfortunately.
