Mute button not silencing microphone on calls with 18.1.1

If the mute button is pressed immediately after placing a call, the mute button will show muted but the microphone will not be silenced. Call recipients can still hear the caller.


I have replicated this issue on 3 different devices. It happens when calling iPhone to iPhone as well as when calling in to a conference bridge. All devices were running 18.1.1. iPhones tested were a 12 mini, 13, and 14 pro.

Experiencing same issue with my 12 Pro model. iOS 18.1.1.

First realized this on a work call when I said something thinking I was muted but was not. This is a HUGE issue. Have also duplicated iphone to iphone. Only happens when immediately muting after hitting the call button. Once I unmute/mute after the connection is made it seems to work. Can't really rely on that though.
