Well... yeah, kinda-sometimes maybe. If any network device has any code that is SIP/RTP aware, that code can be poorly configured or make a mistake. Hiding SIP/RTP inside anything else is one way to avoid being seen by bad configs or buggy code.
A VPN can't prevent backhoe drivers from digging up your fiber, but it can maybe prevent keyboard drivers from munging your packets. It's not a guaranteed fix, but it is one more RFC-3093-ish card you can play that might help in some scenarios.
