As the subject line states, my phone will randomly turn on silent mode without physically moving the switch. Only way to fix it is to move the switch back and forth. It’s been doing this since the release. It definitely feels like a software bug.
iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 14
Hello,
Hmm, I'm not aware of any software issues in that area. Do you have a case on your phone? I've heard that some cases can move the switch slightly.

Otherwise, the only other alternative is to have the phone hardware checked:
Good luck.

I agree.
I also had an 11 Pro Max with a faulty switch that would switch into silent on occasion via vibration; it was replaced under warranty and I had no issues with the replacement.
Thanks for the replies. The case I have has a large opening for the switch so it does not come near it.
I will get the switch checked out in case it is faulty internally.
