Calls going directly to FIOS voicemail while I am on the phone - no audible for incoming call

I have FIOS Voicemail activated and voicemail on my physical phone as well.   When the phone is not in use the voicemail goes to my physical phone.  While I am on a call the voicemail goes directly to my FIOS Voicemail without a signal to me on the phone (so I could switch to the incoming call).  If the TV is on I do see the incoming caller id for a brief second (not the usual 3 or so seconds) if I happen to be looking at the TV.  Reading the User Guide and some questions on this forum has not provided an answer to this specific question.  Should I get an audible notification and the chance to take that incoming call?  Thank you!

Sounds like it could be a problem with your call waiting. I would contact Verizon to make sure call waiting/call waiting id is active on your line and set up properly.
