I have an AWST article that says that the Vega buses were occulted by Venus and performed radioccultation experiments. However, no results were apparently ever published and the occultation is not mentioned anywhere else. Anybody knows anything more?

At that point, the parachute was already detached from the lander. I agree that all known accounts of the Vega-1 event are very elusive indeed.
