Users of Google Pixel phones have been experiencing a troubling bug where alarms randomly do not sound. Despite the volume being up and Do Not Disturb mode off, alarms fail to activate, resulting in missed events and meetings. The issue appears to be inconsistent, with no way to predict when alarms might be silent, causing significant frustration among users, as reported on various platforms including the Google Pixel subreddit.
"I think we'll all agree that this year we've let far too many people down. As we've seen, getting some important things right (Arc Ultra and Ace are remarkable products!) is just not enough when our customers' alarms don't go off, their kids can't hear their playlist during breakfast."
