No not directly, you could load the sounds into a sound editor and
raise the volume that way.

You should receive a turn sound, however because of GPS drift you may
never actually reach the turn.

it does this, the only way to stop it is to move your virtual position
somewhere else.

You should do a space with D BT READ with D QT, then R then V or R
then P.
You should be getting events such as approaching turn, turn now and
continue straight messages. these messages only happen when you are
in a route.
