i have an issue with my buzzer and when i connect it to the vcc gnd and gpio it makes a constant "beep" sound. Then when i run your buzz.py project the volume of the sounds seems to change for a bit and then its still produce the "beep" sound again . Is the buzzer damaged or am i missing something here?

Id say recheck the pin inputs on the raspberry GPIO. The buzzer (even if damaged) shouldnt be able to produce sound through a channel with no active input. To be fair, if you have an extra buzzer lying around, try it out and see if the result is different.

Another possibility is wrong GPIO mapping, so you could try different GPIO pins (avoid 3.3v and 5v) or maybe double check that GRD pin is the correct one.

When you get it set up the issues I've found is usually latency in button press/release and the buzz and maybe a slight change in volume (especially if the buzzer is not fully stationary).

If you want you can also send a pic of the layout and i can try to replicate the issue.
