I have to literally take notes about the meeting the whole time by hand. It helps occupy part of my brain and limit distraction. It does require concerted effort. If it’s an all hands call, that is harder.
No phones. Always have a pen. Write down everything, even if irrelevant. Gives you something to do,
I’m having this same issue :(
Helps to pretend to be physically present / turn on video/ pretend you’re making eye contact with the person and actually in a conversation. As soon as I think it doesn’t matter since I’m hiding behind the zoom, I start to stop listening (if I’m not presenting). Smile on cue, nod, etc - weird but helps me.

If remote meeting, start transcript/ subtitles and read. Helps me fix my attention on something tangible (and this something is exactly what it should be: the ongoing conversation)
Good for you that this happens only after many calls. It’s happening to me from the first call of the day lol
