Same problem. Siri is mute in my language (Italian) but it works if I change it with other languages. It works fine only the first day. In whatsapp I've the same bug.

Hi everyone, I have fixed my Siri MUTED! \o/


1. Go to "Settings" > "General"

2. Then, go to "Accessibility" menu and "Voice Over" and then "Languages or Dialects" (or Speaking).

3. Select "Default dialect" and re-select your language speaker. For me, I am portuguese speaker I selected "Raquel (Refined)" -- not default


... and success. Check if your silent switch button on the left of your iphone is unmuted and test your Siri! 🙂


But my notification sound on WhatsApp is still unstable. Sometimes works sometimes dont. 😢

Someone called Taurus Writer on another message board suggested the following (last July, but for a similar problem):

I spent weeks trying to solve this issue and I checked my Do Not Disturb settings countless times...however, look in your list of Messages...does any Message have the MOON next to that Contact? Click on that Message, click on Details, and you will see that you have Do Not Disturb on for THAT specific Contact.

This worked for me for the problem after iOS 9.0.1 and it would explain why some people find the problem is intermittent - Do Not Disturb (somehow introduced by iOS 9.0.1) for some callers and not others.
