Bug Description

On trusty image 58 (and before), if I mute the phone, incoming calls are silenced. Instead, the default should be vibrate (with optional silent). This is a pretty major usability issue since I might be in situations (eg, a movie, business meeting, church, school assembly, etc) where I don't want the phone to ring, but I do want to be alerted that I received a call). I have missed several calls as a result of this.

The setting design (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sound#Phone) requires to have those options:

- vibrate on call
- vibrate on call in silent mode
- vibrate on messages
- vibrate on messages in silent mode

Some of those settings might have to be shared between the user session and the greeter so we might want to use accountsservice as a storage there (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-system-settings/+bug/1265528 which discuss having also the ringtone there)

Just confirmed this is fixed on r133. It doesn't vibrate only when muted, but that doesn't affect the status of this bug I don't think.
