iPhone Facebook Mutes Audio

[Helmsley]

I'm using the latest version of the Facebook app on my iPhone 13 running iOS 18.2.

When I open Facebook, audio I have playing in the background from another app (like Apple Music or whatever) mutes, until I close Facebook.

I have switched off auto play videos on Facebook and the in-app sound. Also tried deleting Facebook and installing it again.

Can anyone confirm this happens to them too?

I’ve had this happen in the past. I cut back on Facebook lately so I had to test it to see if it was still an issue. Playing Apple Music it did not mute when I open the app. Music paused when I click the video feature of Facebook, but resumed when I clicked out of it.
