Whenever we watching YouTube or any music apps, when the notifications comes that sound actually lowered the media volume and that too for Ionger period. That actually spoil the mood of listening music or watching YouTube.

People may suggest to keep the notification sound to mute or keep it in DND. But thats not the solution. I don't know why Samsung not giving any solution for this.

I agree. And no workaround is really a solution. Setting no tone, small tone, DND. All useless suggestions.
Did you get a real solution Sivakumar?

Samsung must have had a reason for making it sound low. Send feedback from my page of the members app. However you will get a chatbot reply🤪

2nd option is use routines to create a shortcut of not allowing notifications while watching youtube

OR

Download " Dont Pause" app from google store it's free

Don't Pause!, created by developer Trent Pierce, runs in the background and places your ringer in vibrate mode whenever music is playing. The ringer can be put back to its original state when music is stopped, so there is no worry about missing notifications when you stop playback.

The reason is this: It's called interrupts. Which is a feature copied from iOS a few years back but guess they forgot to keep a toggle switch like it is in iOS.
They keep copying fancy features without an option for users to choose.
While it is a nice to have feature for safety reasons, not all people need it.

Like I never drive listening to music. Or listen to music in a bustling area. So I don't need it at all.

Bad homescreen, Imperfect gestures, control centre, half backed landscape mode, bedtime mode toggle, small clock widget font, etc add to the bad experience.

I wonder why put in all these features if I have to get other apps or XDA solution to access every little toggle or feature? It's just pointless
