Re: Changing volume on earbuds remote and VO babble
Hmm, interesting. I use earbuds all the time and frequently adjust the volume or start/stop media with them when in the lock screen. I haven't had this behavior yet. I have iOS 7.1 on an iPhone 5. What model phone do you have? Is it only happening in the lock screen or in certain apps, and if so which apps?

Changing volume on earbuds remote and VO babble
Wayne Sounds like it is just me then, which is good because it means that others aren’t bothered by it and also that I might be able to sort it out. I’m using a 5S and it only happens on the lock screen. It announces whatever last had focus on the lock screen (a notification or album artwork etc) and I also get announcements like ‘High volume’ when I hit the upper limit. Basically my adjusting the volume wakes the screen up each time and speaks things every time. I’ve tried making changes in settings under various things to no avail.
