Notification trigger / Action

Not sure why Android makes this so hard so I am trying to use this app to overcome an android flaw. My use case is simple with a goal of playing a sound when the phone is in silent mode.
I created a trigger to watch for a new notification, then set the phone mode to normal (not silent or vibrate mode) change the volume to 100 on everything, play a sound file then change the phone mode back to vibrate.

I'm not sure if my problem is a permission thing or something I am doing wrong. My trigger is "notification received" , I picked the app and for now set it to any. But each time I test and force the notification (it's a doorbell) nothing happens?

What am I missing?

Did you use wait before next actions between changing modes etc.? It usually takes time so might be decent idea to wait like 200/300ms between them. Also I am not sure why are You trying to change modes, action play sound has option choose stream audio so your phone could use media stream to play sound while still staying in silent mode.

Not sure that's it, I kinda think the trigger is not working. I just added a 300ms wait in-between each and still nothing. Also if it was a conflict like this I should see the trigger logging something..
