What makes you think the VoIP / PBX has anything to do with HTTP traffic 
through Squid?

If (as I suspect), you have the VoIP software configured to use CONNECT 
tunnels through the proxy. You may find it better to move the voice 
channels to direct connections.

Of course. Squid access controls are a boolean language. You just have 
to define clearly what it is checking for and what is to happen to 
traffic matching the criteria.

For the basics, Please see our FAQ at 
<https://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidAcl>.

If you have any specific issues getting it to work we can probably 
assist, but will need some more details about the access policy you want 
obeyed and what config you have so far.
