Fair enough, Won’t Fix was hasty. Marking as Incomplete, because there
isn’t enough information to determine that there’s a problem. Even if
you took a long time to find the settings (which isn’t clear from the
bug description), moving or renaming them might not improve things for
people on average. Moving them might make people slower or less
successful on average, and renaming “Sound” might make people slower on
average in changing settings in general.

Part of the reason I’m skeptical that it’s a problem is that vibration settings 
are also found under “Sound” on Android and iOS.

In general we have the time and budget to test only high-risk designs,
so for most things we rely on experience and judgement even if there’s
an anecdotal bug report about them. But as design questions go, this
would be quite easy to test if you wanted, because you could use paper
prototyping. <http://alistapart.com/article/paperprototyping> Print
screenshots of the current interface, and of the interface doctored in
some way that you think might work better. Test ten participants with
each (not the same ten with both!), asking them something like “Imagine
that you got this new phone, and you were getting annoyed that it
vibrates while you’re playing games. Where would you go here to stop
that from happening?” Start your stopwatch when you finish asking the
question.
