As far as I know, as our C3 has a similar system, the voice control only controls the phone. Are you connecting with a cable (a good quality cable is essential) and do you have Android Auto or the Apple equivalent on your phone?

The button on the steering wheel with the head on it is s two pressure button. Didn't press it will act on voice commands for radio, nave etc. Hard long press it will act on voice commands for the phone. The phone doesn't have to be connected by cable just connected by Bluetooth. My car has Nav so I don't use Android Auto si my phone us only connected by Bluetooth and the blue control that if required. The photo is from the C3 Aircross on line handbook.

It's not a pressure - based switch, it's just time-based - so a quick press and release or hold for longer that distinguishes the actions. But you have it sussed now.
