notification issues since 16.4.1 update

Since the update to 16.4.1 I have been having issues with sound notifications primarily with text messages. I don’t get sound notifications on new messages and now it isn’t showing me a count of new messages so I have to open the text screen to find out if I have any. Having some sound notifications with my Ring app as well. Do Not Disturb is not on.

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 16
