Text Notifcation sound when listening to music?

[Ethan K]

I'm sure this has been addressed somewhere in the forum before, but I couldn't find it...is there a way to receive a text notification sound through headphones when listening to music on the HTC 8X? Thanks for your help!

You just want it to beep once and not speak to you? To get it to say who texted you, that is in Settings => Speech

I have it turned on so when I am listening to music it tells me who the text is from and I can either dismiss the message or have my phone read it to me. Works well for when I was mowing the lawn, didn't have to pull the phone out of my pocket to see who sent me something. I could just turn around so the mic on my headphones wasn't facing the mower (it is pretty loud after all, haha) and replied to the message even.
