I have the same problem. It happens each time I get a missed call in the messenger app. If I close close the app or restart the messenger app it goes away. If this is the case for you also, please report it

My alarm will only beep once and it says unable to play during call when I'm not on any call! Been late so many times now! Shouldn't need to restart every time a call comes through on any format what's going on? I've even set 3 different alarms but nothing works

@titch43: Next time the issue occurs, please try tapping the Recents button in your Navigation bar, and swipe upwards on the Phone app preview window to close it.

Now, open the Phone app > Tap the 3 dots in the top right > Settings > Call alerts and ringtone > Allow alarm/notification sounds in calls, and toggle this option on. If it's already on, toggle it off, then on again to see if this helps. I also recommend heading to Settings > Apps > Phone > Force stop.
