Sieghard, I also wrote to Apple concerning the volume problems. They told me they know about the problem but can't give me any idea as to when it will be resolved.Meanwhile They gave me 2 work-arounds that don't work. One was to press the lock button (not the home button) five times and the other was to go into an app such as music and raise the volume to the desired level. That doesn't work either so I wrote back and was told again that they can't tell me when it will be fixed but they are working on it. This time, there were no work-around solutions. I know from experience that, if you really want to do it you can by doing a complete reset of your phone and then make sure you don't lower your volume below the magic 35% level. I found that out when I had to reset for another reason but I'm not willing to do that again. I'll just wait. Meanwhile, I'm using my phone at 35% or lower.

Having said this, there definitely seem to be a few issues with Voiceover volume and other volume levels in iOS 7. If, for example, I turn down the volume when I am playing an Audible book, Voiceover volume goes down as well even if Voiceover is not even speaking. This should not be happening and I just send a message to Apple Accessibility about that. Hopefully others do as well and this is fixed soon. But you should still be able to lower the volume of a Facetime Audio call or increase the volume of a Skype call while the call is in progress. I actually just checked this by placing a call to the Sound Test service and I was able to increase and decrease the volume while the announcement was speaking with my phone held to my ear and using the volume buttons.
