I am using the latest stable version of iOS 15 and have never had this problem. It only happens if I unlock the iPhone very quickly by facial authentication...

Was it something else at one time? I've only been using face ID since April. I'm noticing that often I don't hear it, so it's a good thing I have haptics turned on. It would be nice to have some consistency.

Never had that happen to me. Face ID made a sound when opening phone but that was only several time and them nothing.
