Always On clock turns off at night by itself at night

Always On clock turns off at night by itself, even though Standby is turned on and the Display setting is set on Never. This is frustrating since I want the clock to stay on all night. Do you have any ideas on how I can fix this?

iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 18

New issue for me. I have an iPhone 15 ProMax which I recently purchased refurbished. Everything works great except for this one issue. I have tried a Forced Restart, but this didn't fix the issue.

Any other ideas?
