Voice command to get to audio screen?

I've searched and looked through the manual and can't find an answer to this: Is there a voice command that brings up the audio screen? In my wife's 2006 MDX you press the voice button and say "Audio screen" and the Nav screen switches to the audio screen. (You can also hold the tuning button in to get the screen to come up) Is there anything similar with the RL? Or is the only way to press the audio button next to the center dial?

Just push the command button on the steering wheel and say, "Display audio screen." (See Navi Guide, pg. 137)

You can also pres the INFO button and scroll the dial to VOICE COMMAND HELP. Organized by feature are all the valid voice commands.

My Navi book only goes to page 128 (2005 RL). And the command "Display audio screen" results in a "Play CD 3" message.

There doesn't appear to be a valid command to bring up the audio screen on the Nav display. The commands will turn on the radio, or XM, or CD, and show the information in the small screen above the Nav but will not actually show the associated audio screen on the Nav display.

I didn't realize there was a specific Audio screen. There is a CD screen, 2 XM screens, FM adn AM screens but I have not seen an Audio screen. You can pull up these various audio function screens via voice command. But I have not seen a special Audio screen, unless I am misunderstanding what you mean.

Press the audio button. It shows the station you're on or all the discs in the changer.

In my wife's 2006 MDX, the command "Audio Screen" brings up whatever audio function you are using on the NAV display. There do not appear to be any voice commands that do the same in my 2005 RL. The voice commands will activate the specific audio function but not show it on the NAV screen. What are the commands you are using to get them to show up?

And there is an audio screen - the various audio functions are tabs on one screen.

I realize that - there should be a voice command so you don't have to take your eyes off the road or fumble for the button while you are driving.

The audio screen in my wife's MDX is one screen with a tab for each function - it's set up differently in the RL. Maybe this is just another annoying difference in the 2005 RL vs 2006 RL.
Edited post above.

I was responding to Gatorade who was unaware of the audio screen.
