Do you know where quantum is used for?  It's for classes that are asking for 
remaining bandwidth.  So if that "one voip user" is never asking for more 
then the configured rate of its class, quantum is never used.  So it really 
depends on how you configured the classes to answer that question.

And taking a quantum of 10 byte is not "wrong".  But if you send 1000byte and 
your quantum is 10byte, htb will use 10byte in it's calculations.  So it can 
disturb the setup, but nothing bad will happen.
