¿FIX? Notification sounds halt/stop/pauses all other audio playback via headset

I'm pretty sure I've looked and searched all of the Xperia threads for a solution to this issue I'm having with my X1i.
Here's my problem: If I'm playing music (using WMP or the Media Panel) with the headset plugged in and a new SMS, MMS, e-Mail, Reminder, or ANY type of WM notification pops up, the track is halted/stoped/paused/or interrupted for a brief second to prioritize and play the notification sound and then resumes the audio playback. I've looked at all the sound settings to see if there was a new option (headset options) to prevent this from happening but have had no luck...
My only guess is that it has to do with the headset drivers or the notify settings in the registry.
The only solution I've had to work with so far is to un-check the Play Sound box for all the notification options available in Sounds & Notifications and check the Display message, Flash light, and Vibrate options to let me know when I get a new message.
I want to be able to have my notifications "Play Sound" when I get a a new notice OVER any playing audio (overlapping) through the headphones. When the headphones aren't plugged in (and the audio is playing from the speaker) notification sounds overlap (without stopping/halting the audio).
If anything, I'd prefer to have the notify sound play out only from the speaker and not through the headphones, as long as it doesn't interrupt the Mp3 playback.

I think this is fault of WinMo....

i don't doubt that it may be a WinMo issue, but the beauty of WinMo is the ability to edit and correct those little things...I'm hoping maybe one of the developers and ROM creating geniuses can help with either instructions of where to go in the registry to fix this or maybe even create little cab file that'll do the trick
I've tried 2 different ROMS in hopes of having that issue resolved....

I think it's an issue that winmo can't handle two seperate audio streams at once, so it stops one to start the other, but I may be wrong..

I don't think so since multiple apps will sound together (e.g. S2P & Core player). Make a backup and play around w/ the following:
HKCU/ControlPanel/Notification/AlertInterrupt (try 0 and 255)
and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev\Priority256 w/ lower value

Skip playing ringtones, notifications etc?

I know there's a way, and I swear I searched but for the life of me I can't find where the instructions are to stop the phone from playing ringtones and notifications and other assorted sounds in the Music app.
Thank you!

I am having the same issue, using winamp for playing music. Notifications come through, but no sound is played. Music doesn't even pause, like nothing ever happened.
Also using Viper Rom on my Sprint HTC One.

No Audio or Media being played. (H872)

HI All,
My phone has stopped playing all forms of media.
Will not play YouTube, music,video.
Will not record from sound recorder
Will not record video from camera
Will not play startup tmo sound but I get a black screen for about 30 seconds then the tmo logo shows up.
Researched this error an nothing helped.
I recently rooted in hopes that someone can help me out
Been happening for about a month now.
I've noticed that if I play a video with stock lg app the video plays in the background but has the "cannot play video" popup on top and plays without sound.
I really hope it's a software issue an not a hardware
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

Check /system/etc and find "mixer_paths_tasha.XML and check the permissions.
Do the same with the other mixer files, make sure to check all boxes in the permissions tab
