The automatic way to choose a number from the telephone menu is to add
one or more commas after the telephone number followed by the menu
number. Each comma adds about a 1 second delay.
This does not work consistently for me with IOS 17X.
Has anyone tried this technique with IOS 18?

Excuse my ignorance, but what does audio ducking do?

Chris,
Did you then adjust the volume?
That is the new thing, once Audio Ducking is on, you can adjust the volume to
up to 199% which means the media volume will drop to almost silent.
It does not seem to work on phone calls though, but if you have a book playing,
or music, etc., as you raise the volume with audio ducking on, the media will
lower in volume.

I actually just turned audio ducking on for the first time and so far have not
noticed a difference.

Sometimes, when audio ducking is set to always, it basically fails to work for
me. If I set it to while speaking, it works better.
I hope this stabilizes in 18.1.

There's nothing all that special about it. Turn the rotor to audio ducking and
flick up or down to go through the choices. I suggest setting it to always.
Once that's done, turn the rotor to volume. You can then set the VoiceOver
volume past 100 percent if you want VoiceOver to be that much louder than the
other audio. I set it to around 125 percent and that usually does the trick.
Some apps are louder so I've gone as high as 140%.
Another nice thing is that you can go under 100%. Say you're on a Zoom call and
don't want to miss what people are saying but still need to hear VoiceOver. Set
volume to around 80% so VoiceOver is lower than the volume of the Zoom call.
The good thing about audio ducking set to always is that it keeps the relative
volume levels stable. Hope this helps a bit.
