Hello good people,

I sometimes have FaceTime conversations with my dad. We both have iMacs, so no mobile devices are involved. We both use macOS 10.12.2, and FaceTime is set up correctly and by the book in both ends. It works just fine. Here is the exception:

If I have something running in fullscreen, like NetFlix, then FaceTime does not ring in my end if he is trying to call me. :confused: Whenever I'm not in fullscreen and just using my mac normally, it always rings as it should. I'm suspecting this is just an annoying "feature"? And.. Until I went into Notifications and enabled full Alerts for FaceTime, I had no way of knowing if he actually tried to call me, unless I manually opened up FaceTime to check for missed calls.

Can I somehow get FaceTime to ring, while I use fullscreen?
