Alarm is silent
I always have my phone on silent mode but the alarm sound would still come on which is good. Now the alarm is silent and I can’t figure out why.

Greetings augustine292,
Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities! It seems the alarm on your iPhone is silent.
Is the behavior due to Attention Aware features being enabled? When this setting is enabled, alarms and notifications will go silent when looking at your iPhone:
About Attention Aware features on your iPhone X or iPad Pro - Apple Support
If unrelated to Attention Aware features, then check out the information in the article below:

Do Not Disturb and the Ring/Silent switch don't affect the alarm sound. If you set your Ring/Silent switch to Silent or turn on Do Not Disturb, the alarm still sounds.
If you have an alarm that doesn’t sound or is too quiet, or if your iPhone only vibrates, check the following:
Kind regards.
I kind of had the same problem. I would set multiple alarms to wake up late. To find alarm is going off but no sound is coming out. What I have learned by trial and error. Is if you go into settings click on face ID and passcode. Scroll down to attention awareness features. And turn it off. That has seemed to fix my issue. I think what was happening is the iPhone would think that I looked at it when the alarm first went off. Hope that helps.
