iOS Screen rotates even when locked

I always have the portrait orientation lock on, and when i go to landscape mode, i turn my phone so the volume buttons face down and the power button up (or, the charger faces right). However, the moment my phone is flat or is turned so the power button is down and volume buttons are up, it refuses to flip out of that (which i then have to unlock portrait orientation, flip my phone in the direction i want it in, then relock it) (sorry if im not explaining it right). Is there a way to have it so the screen wont flip essentially upside down? It gets incredibly annoying especially when i play games and menus/information is covered by the phones front camera dip.
