Yes. Amplifier died. You likely also have no turn signal noise..it is an electronic sound made by the amp. Has happened before to others. Mine on my 2021 went after 3,000kms. Amp replacement is an easy warranty fix. It is in the passenger floor/footwell.
Mine happened twice and as stated you know what it is because turn indicators do not click. I discussed with service and they said they would replace amp under warranty but after about an hour the audio started working again. No idea why. I thought maybe it was from washing since the first time it was in for PPF and second time after washing but now I have washed 20 times and no problem. So both times the audio started up again while driving ie no reset due to turning off the car: I did nothing and so I have not replaced.

Ok thanks
Strange, it was working then got gas and it stopped working, drove for 15 min then i stopped and shut off engine, sat for 5 min , restarted engine still didn't work, drove for an hour with no sound and then stopped to grab a few things at a store , returned and started vehicle and now it's working. I guess I'll see what happens
going forward

Possibly a loose connection? A connector not fully seated perhaps.Ok thanks

Amplifiers are generally good or bad much like a coil for example. Different animal certainly but similar in that regard.
Just a thought.
I agree with 1st vette, it's electronic, works or does not.
I would schedule an immediate replacement if possible with the dealer. Last thing you want or need is for it to stop working in a nice long drive maybe to "Hay River" for an ice cream cone!

We have better ice cream in Yellowknife!

It is telling you, to not take it out in winter, by pouting silently!
Its probably another GM Gremlin. The gremlins started with the C4's and the VATS system. They always make something that will fail intermittently and be undetectable. At least the C8 still starts.
In my 3.5 years of ownership, something similar has happened once. No display, but had sound. Restart the car and everything is back.Ok thanks

The other day it took longer than normal to come up, but it did come up. Computers are like that for some reason or another they may not shutdown just right and come back up a little wonky. A reboot usually fixes these things. I'm guessing in your case, 5 minutes wasn't quite enough to dissipate the gremlin.
