iPhone 16 Pro Max sound issues after iOS 26.6 update

iPhone 16 pro max iOS 26.6 update has caused issues with sound. When phone ringer set to silent and listening to Amazon Music an incoming text message caused the music to blast full volume for a second. While listening to Amazon Music on a separate Amazon device I turned the volume up on my phone to listen to a video in a text message and the volume on my separate Amazon device also turned up. Looking for any recommendations to fix the issues.

iPhone 16 Pro Max, iOS 26

I am not sure what is a " Amazon device"....?
