I definitely just troubleshooted (troubleshot...? Troubleshot...ed..?) this problem, since I’m having it too; here’s what I did:
1. Deleted all my alarms (I have a sleeping disorder so I had 8 alarms set)
2. Created a single alarm to go off in a few minutes, with an alarm sound that came with the phone
3. The alarm went off and played the selected tone. Once that worked fine, I tried using an itunes song instead, doing the same process of setting the alarm a few minutes from said moment. It did not work. The alarm played that stupid default tone.
4. I realized I needed to update my phone. Maybe that would help? Did that.
5. Did steps 2 and 3 again upon restart, with no new success.
So in conclusion, the alarms I set just play the default tone, which I hate with a burning passion; I guess I’m calling it quits on iphone alarms until someone finds a solution :/
