One thing that comes to mind is low-frequency harmonics, such as those
created by human vocal cords and not created or reproduced by anything
but the highest fidelity recording equipment. In other words, he'd be
able to tell with some degree of surity if the voice is real or being
masked by that voice mask implant.
But, find a list of animals that can hear sounds below around 20Hz (the
low end of human hearing) and find out what they do with it.

By the most strict interpretation of the rules, the answer is "yes".
But I'd say it depends on the shaman in question and how literally they
interpret the concepts of day and night, sunrise and sunset.
