Yes, but the factor may be the person brushing the phone so lightly that they don't notice it after double-tapping the call button. I have done this and it will place the focus where the body part brushes the phone. All it takes is the merest contact. The touch-screen is not pressure sensitive, it is contact sensitive. Now, if you ensure that VO is not highlighting the call timer, close the phone app, have your headset connected, use the button on the headset chord to activate Siri, and voice-dial a number / contact, you will have eliminated all possibilities of touching the screen inadvertently. If VO starts reading the call timer then, you have definitely found a bug. VO remains on the field it was last on when the call screen pops up. Using the above method, I have never been able to cause the troubling behaviour.
