Silent Mode: IPhone 13

I want to be able to play music while I'm working out using ear buds, but the silent mode doesn't mute the music. People around me in the gym can hear my music. Using my iPhone 11, silent mode silenced the music on the phone so that only the ear buds produced sound.


How can I get my iPhone 13 to silence the phone music while letting it play on the ear buds?

Windows, Windows 6

I don't think I've ever seen or heard of an iPhone playing music from the iPhone speakers simultaneously with ear buds. If you are paired to your earbuds, it should divert all audio to the earbuds regardless of silent mode switch position.

I just fired up the Sony over-ear headphones I have, I cannot make it play sound from both devices.

I can tap the triangle with 3 circle icon and I can switch back and forth between iPhone audio and headphones. But tapping one disables the other.
