Rustling noise on phonecalls

Mickey: It seems a very bad idea to default to maximum volume if it
causes distortion. I'm not sure yet that that's the sole audio
problem in SHR-unstable, but I can say that when I turned the speaker
volume down to what it was in SHR-testing (68%), I was understood
perfectly, for the first time, by Google's voice recognition
(1-800-GOOG-411).
For anyone wondering how to use D-Bus to set the volume to 68%, you
can do it by cutting and pasting this line:
mdbus -s org.freesmartphone.ogsmd /org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device
org.freesmartphone.GSM.Device.SetSpeakerVolume 68
And this line will show you the current volume:
mdbus -s org.freesmartphone.ogsmd /org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device
org.freesmartphone.GSM.Device.GetSpeakerVolume
Please experiment with different values by changing the volume during
a call. I'm interested to know what values work the best for you all.
And does 100% actually work for anybody without distortion?
