As for touch to wake, it doesn’t work when the proximity / light sensor next to the front camera is covered.

The camera on the Pixel 6 is a hole punch style. Does this then mean that the afformentioned sensors are under the screen? I have a glass screen protector on. Could this be what is interfering with it? Perhaps The glass in front of the proximity sensor is making it think that it is covered.

It may be something like that. I have a 6a and a screen protector on. You can do a test: if you lock the phone and cover the upper part (where the front camera is), the tap-to-wake doesn't work, but works again when you uncover.
