When your partner blows the whistle, you look to see what the violation is so that you can mirror the signal.

In this case, you have an obviously incorrect call (back row attack on a front row player).

As the down official, if I saw which player attacked the ball, and I knew s/he was front row, I would immediately cross the court to my partner and let him/her know that S99 is a front row player in this rotation. I would not wait for the coach to say something.

If I was not sure which player attacked the ball because I was focused on the blockers and the net, I'm going to wait until I'm asked a question before I intercede.
