There is a very simple solution: after you press the side button and hear the tone wait about 1 second before yous peak. Here is what is happening: let's assume you have somebody called John Green in your contacts and you ask Siri "Call John Green". So you push the button and you say "Call John Green" except you speak too quickly and all Siri hears is "John Green" so Siri asks "What do you want to know about John Green". There are other examples where I sometimes do the same and by what Siri says it is very clear that she didn't hear the first part of the request.

I wondered why it was happening, I’m not sure when it started for me, but now if I ask siri to call person X most of the time she says what do you want to know about person X? So annoying!

Ever since updating IOS, I frequently get an odd response when I ask Ciri to call someone in my contacts list. I will say call person X & she will say what do you want to know about person X. This may happen several times before I give up & open the contact to tap on the phone # to call them. Even funnier, I have a sister-in-law named Mickie who is on my VIP contact list & is my ICE contact. Today when I asked Ciri to call her I got a web site telling me who Mickey Mouse was. This happened a couple of times. I obviously have tried speaking very clearly to no avail. It is not the end of the world to have to open the contacts to make a call but I’d rather have the convenience of just saying call person. Is anyone else having this problem?
