I have an iPhone 14 Prom Max with iOS 26.0.1 installed and every time I re-start my phone or it runs out of power, when I charge it and get power back I don't have any sound from anything, calls, messages, notifications, keyboard clicks but when playing music that works OK.
It does come back but I have to switch my phone off and on several times to get sound back.
Anybody else have this issues?

Hi, I had this same issue but iOS 26.1 looks to have fixed it. Have you updated yet?
This might actually be caused by dust or debris blocking the speaker mesh, which can interfere with sound output after restarting or when power is low.
Try cleaning the speaker area gently, I found a detailed step-by-step guide here that explains how to safely do it:

If that does not help, you might also want to check Settings → Sounds & Haptics → and ensure “Change with Buttons” is enabled, or reset all settings (no data loss).

OK. Since you're not even willing to answer a logical question posted by Katana-San about your Battery Health, we can't diagnose your phone from our living rooms.

Tips:
26.1 cannot fix a problem that was not broadly in 26.0.1.
Updating can sometimes fix glitches but more especially when using a computer to update which would be my recommendation with minor glitches
