iPhone XS Fault Earpiece Speaker? iPhone XS

[CDNM3]

Problem occurs on my brand new iPhone XR. Hoping it's a software issue.

Have you updated the software to iOS 12.1? I'm at work and dont' have access to WiFi so I can't install and test it out.

Doing it right now, but I have no idea what makes the speaker eventually fail, so I won't know if this update fixed it or not until it does actually fail again.

I was on 12.0.1 and did restart other day and its been fine. Now on 12.1 and still works. iPhone XS

I have the same again now with iOS 12.1 (few weeks went without the bug on iOS 12.1) on iPhone XS Max 512GB Gold.
So the bug is still there!

Killig all open apps did not do a thing. Reboot fixed the problem.

I reported the bug again, this time by calling to customer support, they ran diagnostics on the iPhone via remote connection and everything was good, no problems on hardware etc. The customer support told that there is no solution now but the bug is now reported and and the engineers will look in to it.

This problem repeats for me every other week, rebooting my iPhone XS Max fixes it. I have contacted the support many times but they don't have any solution. Probably some application crashes the "driver" for the earpiece speaker.. AirPods and Lightning-port gives stereo sound normally.

Is anyone else affected by this bug?

Yes, iPhone XR though.

I haven't had any more problems since updating to iOS 12.1.
