I am pretty sure that before I upgraded from Big Sur to Monterey, if I had an app open in full screen mode. That alert notifications would still appear.
Has anything changed around this in Monterey. I couldn't see anything obvious in system preferences but from reading the Monterey release notes, there as been some work around notification was wondered if there have been any behaviour changes around notifications.

Hello buffalo0,
Let's check to see if you possibly have a Focus turned on and that being the reason you're not getting the notifications. Follow the steps in the article below.
Thanks!

Hello buffalo0,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
If we understand your post correctly, when you're in full screen mode on your Mac you're not getting notifications. We'd like to help!
Check to see in Preferences on your Mac, how you have it set up to receive notifications. Check to see if you have banners selected. If not, select banners and see if you're now able to receive notifications while in full screen mode.

Hi Mario49
Thank you for the suggestion.
I have read through the article and as far as I can tell I have turned off focus mode and deleted any automated schedules around this as per the screenshot attached.
Many thanks

Hi There.
I have alerts selected which I'm assuming should work as the are essentially permanent banners if I've understood correctly.
Hello buffalo0,
Thanks for checking to see if Focus was enabled. At this point, we recommend contacting Apple Support directly for further help with this issue.
Thanks!
