I'm using Tasker 4.7u3 on Android 5.1.1 on a Sony Z1 Compact (D5503). I recently wiped and flashed 5.1.1 and now I'm having an issue using the Set Alarm command for my morning alarm. I set up an alarm manually in my alarm app for 6am with no ringtone and vibrate on. I turn this alarm off. In Tasker, I have a task set up to set an alarm for 6am that triggers based upon day of the week and time of night. Previously, once Tasker set the alarm the alarm I previously created would be enabled. Now a new alarm is created every time the Set Alarm command is run. This is an issue as the default is for an alarm to have a loud sound play and I don't want that. Is this change a result of upgrading to 5.1.1? Did something change with Tasker?

It turns out that the Google Clock app I've been using was recently updated and this issue is present in the latest version (from 09/21) but not in the previous version (from 07/15). So I'll use the previous version. Problem solved and not an issue with Tasker. Additionally, I found that the Timely clock app works the way I want it to, but the vibrate function isn't as nice as the Google Clock app.
