When I ask Siri to “set an alarm for 6am” she creates the alarm with no sound enabled. I saw a previous answer from Apple on this that suggested creating an alarm with a sound (I used the default radar) and then Siri is supposed to use that for the next alarm but this doesn’t work. It always creates alarms with no sound. I’m on iOS 16.0.03
iPhone 13 Pro
I did try all of those steps and even re-setup Siri and it still doesn’t select a sound when creating an alarm even though my default alarm (the only one I have on my iPhone now) has a sound.
To be clear, I say “Hey Siri, set an alarm for 6:30am”. She responds back that the 6:20AM alarm has been created. When I open the alarm and look at the details, it shows sound set to None. Very easy to reproduce.

Hi mapsonburt,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. We understand you have some questions about setting alarms. We're happy to help. After Siri sets the alarm, are you able to go in and edit the sound? If so, does the alarm go off with sound at that point?
We would like to have you work through the steps below to resolve this:
Let us know how it goes with those steps.
Thanks.
Thanks. I’ll reach out to them and reply back here if they are able to help.
Hi mapsonburt,
If you try those steps and the issue remains, you'll want to reach out to Apple Support to have this looked into further.

Thank you for getting back to me. Yes, if I edit the alarm manually that Siri created for me, I can set it to play a sound and it does go off with sound. I’ll try your other steps and get back to you after rebooting the phone.
Siri is using no sound as a default for setting an alarm
