iPhone 8 has no sounds...except

I posted this before 3 months ago but no answer, so trying again. I dropped my iPhone 8 with a case on it on the back deck and no longer get sounds from texts or phone calls coming in. Camera or keyboard sounds also don't work. When I try different sounds for these events, it plays them, ie: the ringer. My alarm also works too. I can listen to iTunes music/songs and watch YouTube videos.


Any idea what has happened why phone event sounds (incoming calls, texts, keyboard, camera shutter) don't work but everything else does?

Your phone is in silent mode. Flip the switch on the side of the phone. Take a look at this support article.
