Volume type is set to media when call is initiated
Steps to reproduce
- Initiate a call
- Press volume buttons, adjust Call volume. Nothing happens
- Adjust Media volume, hear volume change
This does not occur when joining a call, only when I'm the one starting the call. I've verified that this occurs on two different devices. The volume buttons do still try to adjust call volume, not media volume, when this occurs.
Outcome
What did you expect?
Volume of call to be adjusted when call volume is changed
What happened instead?
Volume of call is only changed when media volume is changed

Thanks for the lead on starting a call consistently reproducing this issue. I've added a workaround that I hope avoids the issue with the race condition for setting up the audio device.
@jmartinesp, FYI, I have found that going into handset mode and then back to speaker mode is a workaround in the 25.09.0 version.
