Alarm Suddenly Not Working

This is for an iPhone 13. Alarm doesn’t sound through the speaker anymore if headphones are connected.

If headphones aren’t connected, it sounds through the speaker for about 1 second, but at a lesser max volume than previously, and then goes silent.

I’ve been late twice lately because of this. This is too important a feature, not something we can afford to have be messed up. Please help.

iPhone 6s

If the alarm volume is too low or quiet --> How to set and change alarms on your iPhone - Apple Support

Do Not Disturb and the Ring/Silent switch doesn'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:

Set the volume on your iPhone. If your alarm volume is too low or too loud, press the volume up or volume down button to adjust it. You can also go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics and drag the slider under Ringtone and Alert Volume.
If your alarm only vibrates, make sure that your alarm sound isn't set to None. Open the Clock app, tap the Alarm tab, then tap Edit. Tap the alarm, then tap Sound and choose a Sound.
If you connect headphones to your iPhone, the alarm plays at a set volume through the built-in speakers on your iPhone as well as wired and wireless headphones.

Manually adjusting the time on your iPhone in Settings to change app behavior, like game timers, isn't recommended and can affect alarms.
