When I upgraded to other ROMS they started to appear.

I don't have MS Voice Command installed, so I'm not sure. I did upgrade to the 2.09 ROM and I have a sprint version of the phone.

I have the Sprint Mogul with 2.09 ROM, and I do NOT have these keys in my registry:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\Mic Volume
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\Spk Volume

So they are not "native" to ROM 2.09. Some application or other activity has added them to your phone.

And just to see what effect they might have, I added "Spk Volume" to the AudioGateway section of my registry. I tested my bluetooth headset with the setting at "1" and again with it at "10", and I could detect no difference in level at all between the two. My calls sounded exactly the same as when I had no entry there at all.

So I don't know what those entries do in your phone, but it's quite clear that they don't have any impact on the bluetooth call volume in mine. You may want to do some additional testing.

They were in my registry so if they're not native, they must be associated with my headset (moto S9), which makes sense since there's only mic and speaker volume to adjust in the headset. Definitely made a difference for me, people ask me to speak quieter now because I'm too loud.
