Can you temporary change the code for the view component in app/config/services.php to 
$di->setShared('view', function () {
    $config = $this->getConfig();
    $view = new View();
    $view->setDI($this);
    $view->setViewsDir($config->application->viewsDir);
    $view->registerEngines([
        '.volt' => function ($view) {
            $config = $this->getConfig();
            $volt = new VoltEngine($view, $this);
            if($config->settings->development === false) {
                $volt->setOptions([
                    'compiledPath' => $config->application->cacheDir,
                    'compiledSeparator' => '_',
                    'compileAlways' => TRUE // use if problems with updating files exist
                ]);
                // Alternative to force clear cache and re-compile files
                // array_map('unlink', glob($config->application->cacheDir . 'volt/*.php'));
                // $volt->setOptions(array(
                //     'compileAlways' => TRUE,
                // ));
            }
            // Custom volt functions
            $compiler = $volt->getCompiler();
            $compiler->addFunction('split', 'explode');
            return $volt;
        },
        '.phtml' => PhpEngine::class // php >= 5.5 only
        //'.phtml' => 'Phalcon\Mvc\View\Engine\Php' // php <= php 5.4 work-around
    ]);
    return $view;
});
And the load the page and see if it works?
