I'm not 100% on when this started but it was sometime in iOS 18.

If I'm on a phone call in CarPlay I no longer receive any kind of audio alert to navigation updates or incoming text messages. They work fine if I'm not on a call.

Previously if I was on a phone call Siri wouldn't read out navigation updates but you'd hear a ding just to let you know you needed to check the screen. Now CarPlay will let you drive right past your turn and off into never-never land until you look at the screen. Even worse if Maps isn't currently being shown on the screen.

Not as huge of a deal but likely related is that you no longer get any kind of audible alert when you get a new text/iMessage if you're in a call.

I've reported this to Apple multiple times but at this point I'm wondering if this is unique to me or not.
