So this has been fixed?

Perhaps this is a Faulty Device?:
You have 14 days to return is. Also, you have a one-year, out-of-the-box, limited-warranty. So, contact Apple Support, asking them if it can be covered.
Contact Apple Support:
Note: Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due to lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :

You are welcome.
Interference being the Culprit:
Seems there is interference of sorts.
So, Two Links to Refer to:
Thank you very much! That is working with one of the Bluetooth speakers here at the office, but do you think it will work with HomePods at home? (Can’t classify those as speakers on Bluetooth settings can I?)

HOMEPods and Speakers:
I would think so. I’m eager to know myself. Please report back if it does fix that issue.
I’m using it as I type an it’s really loud (can feel the speakers vibration on my hand holding the phone) but was using Messages and Twitter a minute ago and it was perfect!?!.
Even more strange, had to browse Internet for a moment and answer a text before finishing this answer and it’s working just fine now…?!?… (all this while connected to a HomePod listening to the News transmitted online to an app on my iPhone).
Spoke with Support and they advised taking the phone to a store for help from an Apple technician. I did and they checked the phone which was in perfect condition and after asking around a technician said the problem is on the Bluetooth technology itself.! It somehow disrupts the management of sounds on the phone when connected!?!… kind of strange but my phone does work well otherwise!.
Identifying Bluetooth connections as speakers or others did help quite a bit (thank you) but didn’t fix the problem.
Wandering if there’s any thoughts on that???
