Yeah, it's actually pretty unintuitive - I really did not expect that Google Maps would take over my hard phone button and kept trying the little icon. Voice Command does still work with a long press, and I assume anything else mapped to a long press of that button would still work as expected.

As far as I can tell, there's no workaround to the hijack of the phone button as long as you're in Google Maps. Since I never manually dial if I can avoid it, this isn't really a problem for me.
