Hi Daniel, Your 6S must work differently than mine, if I am on a call, take the phone away from my ear and then once the call switches to speakerphone press the power button I just get Voiceover telling me "Screen locked". I tried pressing it once and I tried pressing it twice quickly, but it definitely doesn't hang up the call and when the phone is still to my ear, pressing the power button does absolutely nothing as you pointed out because it's disabled.
I find a two-finger double tap works well and reliably to hang up calls. You just have to make sure once you take the phone away from your ear that you don't do it super quick, give the proximity sensor a moment to make sure the screen is fully activated again, then make sure your fingers aren't too close together and do a nice, distinct 2-finger double tap and it should work every time, just repeat it once if it really doesn't work the first time. You'll know if it worked because if it does and you repeat you most likely start playback of whatever it is you had playing last. Of course if you are using a headset you can simply press the button on the remote to hang up.
