iPhone vibration pattern different from setting

I've always had my iPhone set to vibrate twice (staccato) for incoming text messages and once (quick) for incoming email. I've changed nothing, but either since I've upgraded to iOS 8 or upgraded to the iPhone 6, now my iPhone always vibrates twice whether I'm receiving an email or a text. This is annoying because I can no longer tell what type of notification I have without looking at the screen. The settings are still set to the defaults--Text: Staccato; Mail: Quick. I've tried changing the mail vibration to staccato and then back to quick and that didn't work; it's still vibrating twice for emails. I tried reseting the phone back to factory settings but it's still not working. I even made a custom vibration pattern that's just one quick vibration and set that for email but it's still vibrating twice. I haven't heard of anyone else having this problem so I'm assuming it's not an iOS 8 glitch. I'm having no other issues with the phone. Any idea as to what's causing this issue and how to fix it?

First: You can (or why would they provide the possibility for that?)

Second: That's not what this topic is about! The problem is that the selected notification option (sound AND vibration) is started twice! The first vibration is aborted and then restarts, and the sound is played two times shortly after another so it sounds like an echo
