Try this:
- Settings ->Sounds & Haptics -> Keyboard Feedback -> turn Sound off/on.
- Restart the iPhone.
- Make sure you’re on the latest iOS 27 update.
Keyboard sounds are controlled under Keyboard Feedback, so if that setting is still enabled, the Emoji-switching behavior is likely a software glitch.

I have been experiencing the same bug and have confirmed the behavior is consistent with opening the emoji keyboard.
Toggling the sound button in the haptics menu and restarting my iPhone did not resolve the problem.
This is quite annoying.
