The nav system sends a signal to the radio to mute when the nav voice command
comes on.  However it doesn't actually send the voice through the radio.
On Bose systems there is a separate speaker on the driver's door for the
nav/phone output.  On non-Bose, the stereo speaker on the driver's
door is a dual voice coil unit, one fed by the radio and the other by
the nav/phone system.
