It would appear that Netmonster is an Android App.

Well if it finds bugs in ngfd why not…

I have the same problem withe the ANDROID-App „Tasks.org“. When it displays a reminder-notification, it plays the calender-sound, but not once (as expected), it just plays this sound over and over again and doesn’t stop. I’m pretty sure this is not related to the app itself, because I previously used it on /e/ and didn’t have the problem there

More information needed for preconditions. Tagging with needinfo.

I’m wondering if it’s the same bug as this one: Notification sound is not always muted
