I understood what you were asking, and my answer is still that she says 
VoiceOver in general is too quiet. I don't think she's used the phone enought 
yet to know if it's too quiet during calls, but likely it is if she's having 
some trouble hearing it outside of calls.

Isaiah 2:11 Human pride will be brought down, 
      and human arrogance will be humbled. 
   Only the LORD will be exalted 
      on that day of judgment.
