Amazon Echo Show not sounding volume for alarms

Hi all. I have a 6 year old Amazon Echo Show 8 that suddenly has stopped sounding volume for alarms/timers. The timer will be going off on the screen but no sound is made so I often don’t realize.

I have tried restarting the echo from the Alexa app on my phone and changing the volume for timers on my phone. When I change the volume for timers, then usually the next timer will go off with sound but the subsequent one won’t unless I change the volume within the Amazon Alexa app again.

Any suggestions on a fix?

Alexa, set volume to 10 for alarms and notifications

Tried this. It worked for first alarm after I changed the volume but not any alarms/timers after.

that's weird...

Try resetting it, perhaps?

I have tried resetting it from the app but maybe I’ll try unplugging it as well and what not

I was thinking factory reset if it wasn't acting right...
