Help Call volume stuck on high after bluetooth

I've noticed times when my in-call volume is stuck on high even when turned all the way down to the lowest setting. I traced this to having previously connected to a bluetooth device for phone use (this happens with two different bluetooth accessories). After disconnecting from bluetooth (whether or not the bluetooth antenna is also turned off), call volume is extremely loud and doesn't respond to the volume-down key. I have to reset the phone to get it back to normal. Anyone else notice this? Any fix for this? I presume this is a bug in the Android 2.1 OS. BTW--this also happens with a friend's Eris running a 2.1 leak v3.
 
Anyone?

I have also noticed this issue after connecting my Motorola Droid to my Camry's bluetooth in my car. About 60% of the time this occurs where the calls after I disconnect are very loud. I too have to turn off the phone and turn it back on to reset.

My in-call volume is always set to the lowest possible setting, and same goes when I am connected in the car. However, when the volume is very loud after the disconnect, the volume setting remains at the lowest setting not allowing me to reduce the volume any further.

This does not occur every time I disconnect my phone, but it does happen often enough and has pretty much since I got the phone.

I've had exactly the problem after I purchased a Sony bluetooth adapter a few months ago. Only fix I've found is resetting the phone. Problem has continued after my Froyo upgrade (HTC Droid Incredible). Has anyone figured out a fix for this?

I noticed this happening again a couple days ago. I was able to fix it by running my volume up a couple of notches, and then back down. I have the froyo DI as well.
