Frankly, I never checked. I assumed that Phone gets a "ring" in any case, and, since it dumps from the audio subsystem, I saw no reason for it to not work. I assume I assumed wrong?

I assume Recaller just needs to listen to one more dbus event (i.e. for voip), but might be wrong and it's more complicated.

Anyone knows of a solution to this?
I have the same issue.
Anyone have the solution?

Recaller notifications do not affect focus. Any other apps installed? Shortcutd and Phone speaker switcher can cause this by design.

I've recently been having "stuttering" or "buzzing" phone audio and suspect that this may be from PR1.2 and/or Recaller 2.0. (T-Mobile US)

Turning off Recaller seems to have resolved this, but it may also be due to too many active apps (I seem to have had multiple Web and Pidgin windows open).

Are others experiencing this?

Yes, and it's not recaller, though it does help a little. It does this with every OS release, every carrier, regardless of installed apps. It's just the people notice when something is affecting audio.

If you find this at an annoying level, try to switch to WAV, which puts a lot less stress on the CPU. Drawback being, files are huge. I transfer and encode up to 700M a week.

There's a reason Phone app locks CPU at 600 MHz for the duration. Also, I understand it has all kinds of priorities. Still fails, it sometimes takes seconds for it to die down from the choppiness and buzzing. Overclock doesn't help much. I did notice, however, that at 900 MHz it tends to only do this when answering, rather than in the middle of calls too.

I'm going to try turning off "auto-rotation" for the phone app and see if that helps.

Some additional hints here

Edit --2010-07-01 -- turning off rotation seems to have helped. I still sometimes get a buzz or two, seemingly when recaller "picks up" the connected call automatically. Too many variables to know if this is really an improvement, but I have to agree that turning off rotation is "a good thing" for even just usability reasons.

I'm already active in that thread and have tried it. Rotating not only does nothing to recording, because it never pauses pulseaudio, but my phone is locked to portrait and I still have the issues.

However, I do recommend locking phone rotation for other issues. It's a good idea.

I have tried this... but everytime when I need to finish the call the phone app is minimized, and I need to wait the rotation to finalize.
