Silent/Ringer Switch not Always Working on iPhone X

When changing from bluetooth speakers back to my iPhone X, sometimes the phone will take itself off of silent mode even when the silent switch is engaged. To fix it, I have to disengage and reengage the switch.

iPhone X, iOS 11.2.6

Phone “silent” switch is completely ignored by many applications Was recently in a very important work situation so I had to make sure my iPhone was completely silent. I manually lowered all the volume then set it to silent mode through the "switch" then AirPlane mode to help quell my fears then to finish the procedure, I manually checked and verified that indeed, no sound would play given an arbitrary source within the phone (for example an application).Needless to say, my worst fears came to fruition and shocked me, as I was confident it was not possible. The cause of the sound was through Bluetooth, a device disconnected causing the internal speakers on the iPhone to play, full volume oddly enough. This is very frustrating, is there a way that effectively prevents any and all sound ? Im aware of the Do Not Disturb option but im afraid that will scale the risk by some integer k as the feature allows different settings for every 'instance' that can lead to sound effectively turning this from a $o(n)$ scenario into $o(n!)$.

iPhone 13 Pro Max Mute/Silent Switch Hi, is it normal for an iPhone 13 Pro Max to have loose mute switch? It's not to the point that it'll switch to silent mode, but it's keep making clicking noise whenever i ran my finger on top of it. Thank you in advance.

Can't silence phone ringer when connected to bluetooth speaker So when I'm connected to my JBL Flip 3 bluetooth speaker and i have my phone on silent my phone STILL rings through the speaker. I've tried to find solutions for this, but all I seem to find are solutions similar to this: "After connecting your phone to the Bluetooth device, go to your phone’s Settings then Bluetooth Settings. Under the section Bluetooth Paired Devices you will see two settings for the paired devices: phone audio and media audio. Uncheck the phone audio option. This will stop your phone from ringing while connected to the Bluetooth device (speaker) but the music will stop when a call rings." I DONT have any settings for paired devices, all i have are my listed bluetooth devices and the little info icon next to them. When I click on the info icon the only options I have are disconnect and forget this device. This is getting frustrating as I like to have music playing quietly at work, but then when my phone rings it blasts at full bloody volume through the speaker. Am I missing something? Why dont I have the options that all these solutions say I should?
