Z5 compact quick notifications during tethering cause volume lowering for audio playback. Annoying!

Hi all,

I've came upon weird problem, which I can't resolve.

I use Z5 as a bluetooth music playback device in my car while running wifi hotspot to share Internet with my navigation tablet.

The issue is that every minute or so some quick notification lights on and off on the status bar and, what is the most annoying - it lowers the volume of a currently playing track. I can't see what the notification is as it is very quick, but I'm pretty sure it is related to hotspot application. 'Portable hotspot settings' app doesn't have any switch to control notifications.

I've tried turning on Do not disturb mode with Only priority setting and everything is fine, no noifications or sound interuptions. But if I set 'Portable hotspot settings' app to allow priority notification - the issue appears. So it is definitely has something to do with the app and notifications.The questions are - what could be these notifications about? How to turn it off completely for hotspot app? Or at least how to disable audio playback volume lowering when notification fires up?

thanks

As I recall there's no way to disable this.
