Sound on Timer

So, I have set the sound on Timer on my iPhone X and when the count down ends, the “alarm” is very quiet.... phone is not on silent.... volume is up, cannot work out what I am doing wrong. Any ideas.

With thanks

iPhone X, iOS 12

I have an XR with the identical problem and it's been bugging me for months. Assuming all other settings are correct, [volume up, mute toggle switch on upper left side isn't on--(guilty of that on one occasion), do not disturb isn't activated], I went to SETTINGS, FACE ID & PASSCODE, then turned off the ATTENTION AWARE FEATURES. The problem occurred even when I wasn't "paying attention" so this feature isn't foolproof. It has resolved the problem.
