Anyone experiencing their phones screen flashing to black screen during voicemail playback? Mine does it every time I playback voicemail.

I haven't experience this issue. You may want to reboot your phone or reset the network settings to see if that helps. If you've done both, then an appointment with the Genius Bar may be your best option.

Are you holding your phone up to your ear or covering the sensor while listening to your voicemails? If it's not on speaker it acts in the same way the phone does when you're on a call.

That was it! I just played back a voicemail and it did the same thing when I was covering the sensor. So glad I asked the forum, I thought it may be a glitch.
