That happened to me. You need to disable Bluetooth Audio to hear the text tones from your phone. If have it enabled, the phone thinks it's sending all audio to the car, so it sits silent, and the car has no capacity to give an alert tone itself, just the visual envelope, so you get no "ding".
Sounds unintuitive, I know, but it's how you fix it. Disable Bluetooth Audio on the iDrive Media > Your iPhone Name screen.
