To add to this and make it possibly even less clear and something else that one's mileage may vary is that I sware that when I move the speaker volume up and down in some way on a call, the relative VO volume does end up increasing. Not in a predictable way though and not that it increases by moving the speaker volume up necessarily, but just in the process somewhere along the line it relatively increases. Kinda strange.
