check for incoming calls if you need to configure the second device so you will hear someone is calling you

Markus_95 I guess that kind of does accomplish what I asked... I really hope that's not the best solution, though; that would mean that any other audible notifications I might get on my computer will go unnoticed unless I have my headset on.
Really though, this seems like something that Microsoft needs to work on and get fixed.

This is just not how phones work.
