Not receiving pushover alerts when DND is enabled

I have several water sensors in the basement I want to make sure are operational. For now I have to disable DND at night on my phone as the only workaround. Am I missing something?

Yes, there is an option within Pushover for Critical/Breakthru Alerts. Once you have this enabled within the Pushover App on your phone, you will need to tweak the string that is being sent out for your Hubitat Notifications to include the '[H]' or '[E]' prefix without the single quotes.

So, if you currently send "Water leak in kitchen!", it would become "[H]Water leak in kitchen!"

Documentation of available prefix options thanks to @stephack :

1. You can now set the default priority of your Pushover Notification in the preferences of the driver. With the Pushover app you can set up different notification sounds and visuals based on the priority of the message. You can create a separate virtual device for each priority level and route notifications accordingly...
   OR
2. If you are like me and don't want to dig through a stack of virtual devices...you can now also add a prefix to the message you send that would override the default priority to one of your choosing.

Prefixes
[L] - Low
[N] - Normal
[H] - High

E.g.. Message "[H]This is a test" will send "This is a test" with High Priority to your mobile app.

[E] prefix is now used for emergency notifications and requires the following parameters
retry - how often to resend notification until it is acknowledged (in seconds with a minimum of 30 seconds)
expire - timeout for resending notifications if they are never achknowledged (in seconds with a maximum of 10800)
