Dell Venue 8 Pro System Notifications Not Working

I just picked up the DV8 and noticed that I am not properly getting system notifications.  More specifically, the email received audio notification chime doesn't play whenever I receive a incoming email or the notification light doesn't blink while the unit is in sleep mode.  I've checked the audio drivers and they work fine. I can play YouTube videos with no problem and rarely I'll see the notification light if at all.  Additionally, I've checked all the boxes for system notifications to 'on' so that's not the problem either.  I've called Dell who said it was a Microsoft problem.  After getting nowhere with Microsoft's Customer Support, I'm still stuck with not getting notifications.  Does anyone know of any workarounds or solutions?

 

Thanks.

I dont think you'll get indication about the notification through LED, You will get audio notification.

Audio notifications don't work in asleep or awake modes.  LED notification light hardly works at all.
