Yes, Settings > Sound > Volume > Use incoming call volume for notifications
Thank you very much haha. That was so easy I feel stupid. Sorry I couldn't answer your question.

I'm pretty sure Google Navigation used to use the System volume, but it doesn't seem to anymore. Now I think it's only used for keyboard sounds.
Also used for the shutter sound in camera
Thanks man, works for the camera shutter. But has no effect on the volume rocker making noise when adjusting volume.

Right. It shouldn't, should it? It doesn't make sense to use a volume for that sound other than the volume of the channel that the button is changing.
I was looking for a way to mute the volume rocker. I am using NoLock app so I don't have the lock screen sound on/off feature so I am using the rocker and hold down, to go to vibrate but if i want to go back, it makes a noise.

Any way to tie notification volume to ringer volume?

Hi a lot of devices tie the notification volume to the ringer volume. Where when I use the volume rocker to adjust volume the notification volume gets adjusted as well. I don't seem to have that option on the Note. Anyone know of an app or setting I'm missing?
Thanks.

If you use the app "Quick Settings" you do have a option, "use ringer volume for notifications"

The app Extended Controls has a widget that has option you can tick that says "Use ringer volume as notification volume". Extended Controls is a very useful set of widgets, well worth it IMHO.

[Q] Use volume buttons to ONLY change notification volume

I have unlinked my notification and ringer volume via gravitybox, now I would like to switch the volume keys to control my notification volume and ONLY my notification volume. I have searched for hours and all I have found where ways to link ringer and notification volumes, I do not want this and I do not want to use any timer app or anything, just a simple remap for my keys.

[Q] Audio control customizations

My wife's Moto X has an annoying quirk where any time an app that uses "media" volume is running (even in the background), it's impossible to change the ringtone volume without going into the audio settings. The volume buttons on the phone pull up only the media volume control. On my HTC One M7, there is an option to have an expandable pop-up volume control so that even when I am playing music or whatever, I can still hit the volume button, expand the controls, and adjust the ringtone volume. There's even a check box to combine ringtone and notification volumes.
Is there any app, setting, or mod to fix this issue with the Moto X, short of installing a custom ROM? The phone is not rooted, but I could do so if that was required for a fix. I'd rather not use an app like Volume+ that doesn't integrate with the volume control button and would require a widget.
Thanks

this isn't a problem with the X so much as it is default behavior with Android. The HTC had a different method because HTC skinned Android to do what they wanted it to.
you basically have three options:
1. go into options and adjust manually
2. install an app (I don't have recommendations)
3. hold down the power button - this won't adjust volume but you can switch between vibrate on/off.
If you want an app to do this you should checkout Noyze.

If the phone is rooted, you could use Xposed with the Gravity Box module.

Pie volume buttons

So since pie I hate the fact that my volume buttons only turn the media volume up or down. I have to go into sound settings to change ring volume. Anyone figure out a way to change this?

no, other devices are just like this too.
Unfortunately that's just how Pie works. It's definitely my least favorite part of Pie. You can change it if you the xposed module Gravity Box. Under media tweak, if you enable Force ring volume control then it return it to pre-Pie controls.

A-Volume widget is good.
