You can't stop a true free flow by shaking the reg.
There is no need to switch to your octo, this is not a good idea. You will just be putting more demand on your 1st stage.
Just tilt your head to the side so the bubbles are not in your face. Then you can take the mouth piece out a little or use your tongue to deflect the air off your teeth. Your mouth is going to get cold fast from all the air.
If the free flow was caused by ice you can share air with your buddy and shut you tank off for a few minutes and try turning the tank back on. However the added demand on your buddies first stage could start to freeze it.
