Google pixel 6 Rear Camera doesn't work, and I have tried many solutions

I recently upgraded to a Google pixel 6 from a 4, and I like the phone other than the camera issues I keep having.

The rear camera is solid black and I get the "Something went wrong" pop up. The front facing camera works fine.

When this issue first happened, I tried the clearing cache and data, and restarting my phone and that worked. But every few days the same issues happens, and I check for updates, uninstall and reinstall the app, and/or clear the cache and data. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't and the camera just works again a day later. Ever sense a recent update it just doesn't work at all now. I have also tried rebooting in safe mode and the same issue happens.

I am unsure if this is really a handwear issue as it seems to come and go with updates, and it mostly happened when I would try to take a photo while on a phone call with someone at the same time.

Are there any other solutions I could look into to fix this issue?
