Alerts volume vs music volume

I have a Forerunner 245 which I pair with bluetooth headphones whilst running so that I can listen to music playing via the watch. Whilst doing workouts, I get alerts and instructions via the audio (lap times, workout step goals etc). My problem is that I need the music to be quiet so that I can still hear enough ambient sound to stay safe, but I need the audio alerts to be loud enough to hear clearly, which I can't whilst my music volume is set at a safe level. Is there a way to increase the volume of the alerts without increasing the music volume?

No, not resolved, the only advice is to work around the issue by using bone conducting headphones such as Aftershokz...

This leaves your ears open to hear ambient sounds.

Can we listen the alerts during a workout (training plan) on the 245 non music version?.

i.e. Alerts meaning the countdown of the last 5 seconds before start running with a specific pace or when you are to high or low for the desired pace?
