Google Pixel audio issue is a software issue

The Pixel team has been investigating the issue and promise to update the community with 'meaningful info' according to Express. Google is reportedly working on the Pixel audio issue and planning to roll out software fixes soon.

While Pixel users are waiting for any good news from Google, a few of them have reportedly solved the matter with WETA ROM. The modified ROM has proven to fix the Pixel audio issue but users have to root their Pixel devices and install TWRP recovery before installing WETA.

If the mod procedure seems to be too technical to perform, users can also opt for a more traditional solution by avoiding apps that could distort audio and keep the volume at moderate level until Google announces software update. Users are also encouraged to visit developers threads for any bug reports and fixes.
