Auto-answer toggled off but facetime still automatically taking calls

Facetime automatically answers despite auto-answer being toggled off. Bluetooth was on the second time this happened, not sure about the first. I can't find answers outside of 'toggle auto-answer off'

If Auto-Answer is off under Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Call Audio Routing, FaceTime may still auto-answer due to Bluetooth headset auto-accept features, a paired Mac/iPad relaying or picking up the call, or a glitch in iOS call routing preferences.
