So. The plot thickens.
There are two speakers in this phone, the one you heard youtube on is the rear speaker. The garbled one in calls is the ear speaker.
My phone has the same issue as yours, can place a call, but then the call audio on the pinephone is garbled, but the audio for the call is otherwise fine (the other phone recieves the call fine and the mic input is sent and its perfect)
So I have disassembled the phone and tested the earpiece speaker. 29Ohms which is fine. I then used it with some test leads to play headphone output and it was fine if not that loud but definitely audiable. So thats a red herring to suspect the speaker itself. Whatever is happening is either hardware related internally or software.
No one else has had this issue?
