Audio from video playing in background even when it’s closed

I have an iPhone 15 pro max and it keeps playing an audio from a video i recorded and deleted in the background. I deleted the video and even restarted my phone 3 times and it randomly starts playing that sound even when nothing is open, and over my music or audio books. It is weird since I deleted the video so not sure why the sound is still playing.

iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 26

I found out the solution, it turns out it was Snapchat video when I was recording something but forgot to send. Even when the app was closed it kept playing on loop. So send out that snap video or cancel and it would resolve, at least from what I experienced.
