There's a reasonable amount of interaction between nav and stereo:

The nav reduces the volume (doesn't mute it) of the front speakers during voice instructions

The voice comes out the driver's door speaker only, (or center speaker if a surround system is fitted). This way the passengers are less bothered by the voice.

The nav also issues a Ding if other higher-priority audio signals such as Telephone or Traffic Announcements are occurring.

The nav voice comes through even when the stereo is turned off.
