iOS 14 - MFI hearing aids now playing all system sounds - separate volume control requested

System sounds, including notifications, are now optionally sent to MFI hearing aids.

(This feature previously appeared in iOS 13 and was removed in iOS 13.2.)


I now hear notification sounds much more surely than via the phone speaker.

I am grateful that this feature has returned, with a setting to Disable it for those annoyed by it.

Settings > Accessibility > Hearing Devices > Play System Sounds


However, the volume of the notification sounds via hearing aids is very loud.

Request - a setting to adjust Hearing Aid System Sound volume.


As a work around, lower volume notification sounds can be selected for each notifying app.

This doesn't work for me with ios 14.2, at least not with the ringer mute switch in the MUTE position. I can hear normal phone connection ring tones and audio with the switch in the MUTE position, just not text alerts. Very frustrating.
