(i may also be having the same behavior with missing the first part of notification sounds when coming out of sleep, but i am still in the process of choosing tones and volume levels, so I hadn't started to worry just yet.)
The ONLY work-around I found (and it's not even really a work-around) is to disable the key tones because those are the most annoying part about having a loud system volume. After those are disabled you can jack the system volume to 100%, so you can at least get the MOST out of the single tone alerts, even when they don't play as loud as they SHOULD.

I have a feeling there will be a fix soon enough though.
