Try system - gestures - press power button. I have the choice of the power menu or the digital assistant.
I could do that...but then I lose easy access to the assistant. I could set up the tap on back function, but that doesn't work when it's in a holder in the car. There are no options that I can find that would let me assign the assistant to open on power + vol up. Unfortunately these phones aren't as customizable as as I'd like them to be. Or at least not by default, but I don't want to go through the trouble of flashing a new OS yet.
I use, "hey Google," but sometimes my car tries to answer and it doesn't know as much stuff.
I actually didn't know that was changeable, one of my most hated "features" of my phone that it wants to bring up an AI assistant I'll never use and didn't ask for when doing something that has brought up the power menu on every phone I've ever owned
