On my 4S running IOS 7.X if I started the audio in a way that interrupted
Voiceover the volume would come back, like the first tap of a 2 finger double
tap silenced Voiceover and then the audio popped back up.

I did try the triple click just now, and the volume did come back up. In
additon to needing to dig my phone out to do this instead of being able to use
my headset controls, one of the times audio ducks and doesn’t come back up is
on the announcement of my screen locking.

I’m not finding a way to disable audio ducking on IOS like you can on Mac, am I
just missing it, or is this feature not available?

I've had this happen sometimes. If I'm wearing bluetooth earphones I find
that if I press as if I'm going to call siri but then keep very quiet when I
would usually talk, then after Siri's part which usually is silent since I've
said nothing, the volume will usually come back within a few seconds after
that. It sounds complicated in writing but it only takes a few seconds in
actuality.

On a fairly regular basis the audio playback on my iPhone, music book or
podcast, doesn't come back up after audio ducking for VoiceOver. If I get a
notification, like a text message, the audio comes back to full volume.
Anyone else experience this or have any thoughts?
