Siri activation beep stopped working with iOS 15.2.1

I found a previous post about this same problem occurring with iOS 13… but restarting the iPhone and toggling Listen for Hey Siri were ineffective.

Does anyone have a solution?

Siri activation beep stopped working after iOS 15.x upgrade, some times is essential to know if Siri was activated, example if you are not looking any screen at all (wearing a helmet on a motorcycle). You just don't know if Siri is listening at all. Pleaaaaase get back Siri's activation beep. It's annoying that you have to stop doing whatever you are doing just to be sure that Siri is listening.

  3. Turn off Listen for "Hey Siri," then turn it back on.
  4. When the Set Up "Hey Siri" screen appears, tap Continue.
