I had the same problem.. turned out my phone was still connected to my Bluetooth earphones which were in my bag.. So it rang normally, but all notifications were silent (playing on the earphones unknowingly).  Try to switch off the Bluetooth and see if it works for you.

If you have a galaxy watch 4 you have to disable "mute notification on phone" in wereble app.

Watch settings - notification - mute notification on phone

Thank you, this worked after try all else, except an additional step was needed for me. For some bizarre reason, even though I had notification sounds set up in each app, under Settings, notification sound, the sound was on MUTE, unmuted, increased volume and eureka, all sorted!! I think the last update must have automatically muted the sound for some reason?! Hope this helps everyone else tooo! :smiling-face:

This just happened to me. Today I linked my Whatsapp to my laptop so I can see messages on my laptop. When a message is sent I see a pop up on my laptop and it makes a notification noise. But my S21 Ultra is silent when the message comes in. All sound volume's are up.

Had same issue on S21 & following a suggestion on Bluetooth in previous message turned it off. Now get notification sounds. Then disconnected each connection in turn & found that my Galaxy Watch 4 was the culprit. Powered off the watch & back on & the sounds are back on. Not sure how long it will last but it might help to figure out what is going on. I also tried mute notification on phone as above.

It's 2025 and this issue starts at random instances, with no particular changes to system settings from my end. I believe it's a WhatsApp issue across multiple Android devices without a solid resolution.
