Anyone else having the audio ducking issue after watching a video on Facebook?

Good afternoon all, I'm having an issue that is kind of irritating. Since iOS nine, I cannot watch a video on Facebook without voiceover getting softer after backing out of the video. Has anyone else had this issue? Is there a workaround to eliminate the issue?

I did experience this problem the one time I listened to a video in Facebook. I closed Facebook in the task switcher and the volume came back up, albeit somewhat gradually.

Yes, I have to close FaceBook in order to get VoiceOver to unduck.

The only workaround is you have to Press the home key and turn Siri on and off.
Hope this helps. Cheers.

My voiceover goes down as soon as I open Facebookā€¦ I'm running the latest version of Facebook as of 11/4/2015, and iOS 9.1ā€¦. As soon as I close Facebook, the voiceover comes back upā€¦ I also noticed that the Facebook icon doesn't show notificationsā€¦ I have to actually open up the app, and Touch the notification tab, to see if I have any notifications... Does anyone know if Apple or Facebook is working on these problems?

Same here

Killing fb in the app switcher fixes it, but it's annoying
