Under: Enhancements in JAWS 2021.2012.57 (January 19, 2021)• A new feature was introduced earlier this month, designed to let a user change the volume of JAWS speaking or the system volume itself using a layered keystroke: The following is a list of improvements made between the initial 2021 release and the January 2021 update. New Layered Keystrokes for Adjusting JAWS and System VolumeMany users working with conferencing applications like Zoom and Teams have raised the issue of JAWS volume blocking their ability to hear a meeting or webinar while trying to navigate in other applications. To solve this issue, we have introduced a new feature that lets you easily adjust the volume of JAWS independently from the volume in other applications, such as Zoom, Teams, Skype, YouTube, or other apps that play audio. JAWS and Fusion now offer a set of layered keystrokes for quickly adjusting volume. To access this layer, press INSERT+SPACEBAR, followed by V. Next, press J to control the volume of JAWS speech or S to control the main system volume. After pressing J or S, use the ARROW keys to raise or lower the volume in small increments, or PAGE UP or PAGE DOWN to raise or lower the volume in larger increments. Press ESC to exit the layer when finished. Volume changes remain in effect until you later adjust them using the same commands. Note: When adjusting volume with the ARROW keys or PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN, the lowest level that can be set is 10 percent.

I just tried this again here, and it worked.
Hit the insert or Jaws key on the numberpad and the space immediately after that. Then follow this by the letters V and J.
You can adjust the volume using the up and down arrow keys from there.

OK, I thought that you could be right about me accidently pressing B
instead of V. I am using JAWS 21 on a Windows 7 machine and when I press
Insert+Space then V, I get Braille and text viewer and a message saying that the
Braille and text viewer is not available. If I press Insert+Space, then B,
I get nothing. I guess that my system is just weird.
