No TONE is playing after voicemail messages

I have an iPhone 13 Pro, iOS Version 17.0 and this week I started getting a lot of dead air voicemails. The callers are not getting a tone to let them know the voicemail is being recorded. I switched from my custom greeting to the default greeting. The default greeting states to leave a message after the tone but there still is NO TONE is being played.

Contact your cellular carrier for help with their voicemail service, this has nothing to do with your phone.

The live voicemail was my issue. Turn it off and there is the message “after the beep etc.” from my carrier. And turning it off and then on again didn’t work for me. When I turned it back on, there was no after the beep message. So re-recorded a new greeting and with live voicemail on, I got a nice little beep instead of the automated carrier message.

I wonder if it has to do with the "live voicemail" feature? I was getting no tone either. I turned off "live voicemail" in phone settings, called my number using a different phone, and the beep tone worked. Then I turned ON the "live voicemail" feature again, called my number again, and the beep tone still worked. Maybe the "live voicemail" feature got stuck or has a bug in it or something?
