Do Not Disturb is enabled. Priority broadcasts play at the phone's current audio level.
● Emergency By default, broadcasts sent to group 25 are considered Emergency broadcasts. An
Emergency broadcast interrupts Normal broadcasts, Priority broadcasts, and active calls and plays
out at near maximum volume even if Do Not Disturb is enabled.
