Calendar Notifications as Alarms Is there any way to have calendar event notifications show up as alarms?  Maybe via some 3rd party app?

I saw a rec here, but the reviews indicate that the app is not maintained and dysfunctional:

I can't reliably notice notifications, since they are too short, so I make alarms for important meetings, but this is getting really inconvenient.

I also tried the "Calendar Notifications" app, but haven't been able to get it to help (it just adds another notification :P) 

I also tried "Alarm Calendar Plus", which seems to work, except that it doesn't properly update when I add new events.  (also the UI is difficult)

I'm now using the premium version of Business Calendar, which allows you to set the notification to repeat many times, and snooze the notification.  I think it still uses the notification volume, but is serving my purpose.
